four inches of snow can make a rider crazy - especially this one. winter means more time indoors and more time to make monumental decisions about what one is riding next year.
here is the lign up of choices:
dt swiss - super light but un-race proven in my eyes. pretty much 150% if i ran into issues with these hubs during a race or pre-race, nobody but my trusty mechanics could fix them.
chris king - i have raced these for 4 years with no problem. heavier then dt's, but lighter then the xtr's. mechanics should not have to touch them, but spare parts would be near impossible to find during a race situation.
xtr - cheapest of the three, and therefore, heavier. spare parts would never be an issue as shimano is at all major events. my mechanics are working on a top secret plan that could get the weight down a little closer to the kings - hopefully.
that is the delima of the day - hope your life is not as complicated..
