@cyclopathic-uk: no mate I read you’re a fan of Hope in your shop. What annoys me is your false statements about not about hope hubs being “overpriced”, “heavy” and DT Swiss not requiring proprietary tools When in fact they do require proprietary tools… regardless of how cheap you can get the tool. Overpriced? Tell me why they are overpriced? Like where are you getting that from? Even at RRP hopes are absolute value for money. But most of the time you can absolutely get them as cheap as £120 for the rears depending on your colour and setup preference. 10min search: Hope front boost 15mm - £60 Hope rear boost XD - £150 240 front boost 15mm 6 bolt - £115 240 rear boost XD - £233 (not including your ratchet upgrade of £59) Pro5 front - £95 rrp Pro5 rear - £220 rrp Still cheaper and not even released yet with double the engagement (if that matters to you) For a locally produced product with the level of support, exploded parts diagrams. Every single bit, bolt, spring and washer has a part number and you can order them well past end of production. With Interchangeable end caps to swap wheels between bikes. Similar to Hope domestically produced CNC’d rear hubs with equal levels of support and colour options: Chris King - £550~ I9 - £440~ Onyx - £420~ Profile - £394~ For Pro5s even at the new RRP of £220 they’re an absolute steal for what you’re getting. Again tell me why these are overpriced? Or are you the one trolling? And as for weight like for like same spec for same spec the weights are marginal… and the hopes are still lighter than the likes of chris king and onyx. But what you seem to be comparing is lightest option vs heaviest.. a centrelock, straight pull, XD vs a steel body HG. So whilst I get you’re not opposed to Hope don’t just sit there and spout nonsense about them being overpriced when they’re far from it.

the fuck would you do if you encountered a lion?? :S :L haha! no way could you out bike it!.. unless you where on a DH course.. but out on the AM bike?? haha screwed!

its nice to see that marzocchi are starting to re-appear on team bikes and such(foes DH prototype, CRC DH Team, Pinkbike/Devinci etc), after the last few years of poor quality coming from marzocchi.
