OneUp Announces New 157 Hubs
I used to be of this opinion too. Then I tried a Sidekick hub. It's honestly pretty insane. NSMB had an interesting review where they covered that topic compared to some other hubs recently.

First Look: The Boyd Sixtus Hub Has 612 POE With Single-Pawl Engagement
612 glorious ways to get freehub poping noises, excess drag, and premature freehub failure. Why do brands keep chasing hair-splitting amounts of engagement? Especially with the pedal kickback and suspension performance implications.

e*thirteen Launches New Grappler Tire Lineup Including Radial Options
@ReformedRoadie: Hum. Ive run the DH and EN Mopo in both 27.5 and 29. I didnt find them any more difficult to install than other brands heavy duty casing tires. Tubeless setup was easily done with a floor pump too. Some thicker rim tapes (like gorilla tape) can build up the rim well and make install more difficult.

@wburnes: Not the new version. Its about the same as a normal hub.
