New forks + hub

Norco_Hucker

I've decided I'm going to get some Marzocchi Z1 sports, but now I need a 20mm front hub, I've looked at the Hope pro 2, would this be any good?? It's to go on a mavic ex325 disc rim.

Yup, better than most in that price range.

or get a syncros hub there sposed to be the business this year, but they do cost quite a bit.

hi peeps

Pro 2s are the best hubs on the market in my opinion. Get one. Good choice on forks too. [:)]

Can't really fault Pro 2 hubs, like all Hope hubs they're quality components which you can rely on to last so go for it

yeah. and they are convertible back to QR (Pro II's), i dont like the rear hubs though, just because they are so damn loud (the constant click click when free-wheeling, although, helpful to move walkers...)

Yeah, I was thinking of getting a rear one to match the front, and to replace my crappy deore, but they're œ110 on CRC!!!

yeh the pro 2 is a good hub. got mine in october when i bought new forks and it has lasted through the winter and is still runnng smooth. It will stand up to plenty abuse, i have used mine for dirt jumping, street, freeride and downhill.

are you sure the "GREEN MACHINE" will take 130mm? (i am presuming that thats where they will be going)

It should take up to 150mm - my frame is pretty much identical to the Sasquatch (wich comes standard with 150mm) + I've also seen a Bigfoot with 170mm.
