I have the novatech, well mine is labeled different but it is, and it's going strong 7 years on, I don't use water on my bikes, for what it is worth. It's kinda heavy and I want to upgrade but have not bothered.
They also are stock on transition dj.
Why dont you use water on your bike?
Do you just clean it with quickwax/car detail spray and a microfibre cloth or something?
Finally got my profile stem to match my elite hubs! I can honestly say I've never been this impressed with the attention to detail of a stem before got some chromag fu50 bars on the way too so cockpit should be fairly fancy!
They were the first to make a hybrid cassette/coaster with MTB spacing, no? Didn't they do that years ago? For like, 1300 dollars us?
Either way profile gets a lot of flack for BMX hub durability, but all of their stuff is made to be immaculate, like Chris King stuff. I always thought of them as a 'better fit' for for the MTB communtiy in general than BMX, because BMX riders are 100x harder on parts, better to just buy salt+ and eclat if you're actually abusing shit. Its like, 1/4 the price of profile. If you ride both 20 and 26 all the time like I do you know exactly what I'm saying
