  • After almost 7 years I stripped all the threads on my Novatec hubs.

    I will reuse my old rim (HALO Aerotrack 32h) and am looking now for a budget-friendly hub with decent quality. Any ideas?

  • I feel like that needs an explanation in order to get a sensible/useful recommendation.

    How did you strip the threads? You say hubs, does this mean you've stripped multiple hubs?

    Immediate suggestion would be a converted XT hub and Velosolo style bolt on cogs (though given the severe drop in quality I've seen in the Velosolo cogs I may think twice about recommending that system to anyone now) but there's a lot of people giving Novatecs a pretty hard time and I haven't heard of too many of them stripping.

    I've certainly seen track riders that are changing gears multiple times per session mess the threads up but they seem pretty bombproof for normal road use.
