Ok so I've SOMEHOW Broken 3 G-Sport ratchet drivers to date( They might have been defective so I've been told), And Im getting pretty fed up with waiting on warranty/ghetto fixes and and not riding my bike....So whats the most reliable hub?

According to George from G-sport I have gotten 3 of the "Defective" 9 tooth drivers, and that the new gen 3 Driver and coller should address this problem.

Do you think I should Give a ratchet another try and buy the new "redesigned" Driver and collar ? Or just scrap it and get another Female hub like a Eclat Pulse, Deluxe F-lite or BSD Back street?

Also what hub do you use?

Any input would be greatly appreciated

if i were you i would try a shadow raptor hub. my friend has one and has never ever had any problems with it and hasnt even maintained it since he has got it and its still running perfect and has never skipped on him. it seems like a truely good hub

Looks cool But Im not feeling buying a 250 dollar hub and then paying 2 dollars a spoke.

K.
I'd give that Ratchet hub oonnneeeee more little try so long as shipping and handling and everything's on them (G-sport) at leaaaast discounted big time anyway.
Personally , I ride a V3, not so sure about female rear, though, because you seem to break alot of stuff.
Supreme's and most of the stuff by Primo are deece too.
Saying Tree and Eclat and stuff is kinda dumb because they're integrity hasn't really been tested
