CrazyBike FLIP SingleSpeed Rear Hub (135mm) Build
@JakeMness:
I have done so much research online and it's definitely few and far between with accessibility finding these products. I will do a little more research and see what comes of the spokes. it's strange how DJ/MTB are "behind" in the driver world i feel but also, mtb have WAY more riders and different styles to which call for different products. it's hard to shift everything over i suppose. Thank you so much for your insight. I'll hit you back with an update of what i decide on in the end, ok. Cheers mate!

CrazyBike FLIP SingleSpeed Rear Hub (135mm) Build
@JakeMness: I appreciate you getting back to me on that. Thank you. I did a bunch of research and the hub definitely seems solid for the price point. Everything any better is beyond the cost i want to spend honestly. I have an extensive background riding BMX so I don't need anything top end nor do i ride heavy/hard. So I can make a mid range hub last no sweat. I am familiar with BMX sites but not much for DJ/MT bike research. I am trying to run 1pc driver since i feel they perform the best overall. I will look into the rim/spoke setup you went with. Any links for sites that you could direct me to for purchasing some hardware?

@JakeMness:
Not sure if you’re still running this hub but I’ve been watching it myself too. I wasn’t sure if it were a scam until I saw your post. It sounds like your position on this part is quite positive.
Would you know the specs of spokes, nipples and rim you bought? I want to make this purchase but would like to compare parts and sizes if possible. Thanks a bunch, mate ????????
