Does anyone know who makes Fast Forward's own brand hubs and are they any good compared to the upgrade option of DT240s?

Thanks :)

    Hi FoggyMike,

    I think they're Novatec, but I stand to be corrected!

    Sorry, I can't be for certain but I'm sure others will have a better idea.

    I'm thinking of the same thing, was looking at the F2R Tubular. Which one are you thinking if you don't mind me asking?

    Cheers

    Hi Chung,

    F4R for me - just choosing between the tubs and FCC's depending on if they are for racing or training too which I've not decided.

    I used to have the tubs and liked them - wish I'd kept them! The last set had the previous version of their own hubs which were a bit rough but I got them second hand so never knew the real milage or how they'd been looked after before I had them so I've still got an open mind. I'm going for new ones this time either way.

    Cheers,

    Mike

    Hi Mike,

    Interesting to hear about your previous experience regarding the FFRW hubs!
    Maybe I'll just go for the DTSwiss ones as they're only about £150 dearer than the standard ones. I think the hubs alone cost around £350-400 if bought separately. :mrgreen:

    Thanks for the heads-up!

    Happy Shopping.

    Cheers
