I'm looking for a new rear wheel to be built up for my fixed wheel commuting bike, I've decided on the rim but I want a decent rear hub that's sealed as it will be used offroad as well as on.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a decent 120mm width hub I could use? Preferably double fixed but fixed/free would do if nothing else is available.

My Aerorage rear wheel (that hub as far as I'm aware) has done 3429 miles and it's been good as gold. That includes a fair chunk of muddy/gravelly towpath.0 -

Good hubs, I've just given 2 away when I sold my Tricross. Only reason I had spare hubs was I trashed the rims and it was quicker to get a complete wheel rather than wait to swap rims. They have sealed bearings which can be changed in 10 minutes with a pair of circlip pliers, hammer, spanner and piece of wood.I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.0

They definitely sound like the ones then. Easy maintenance is a definite bonus!0
