Extralite Hyper Rear.....I've tried googling but nothing much came out aside from some dealer links.

I'd like to know how well this rolls (Compared to your previous hubs), durability issues (If any), ease of buying spares (Hopefully that day will never come), freehub issues (if any). Any additional information would be gladly appreciated too!

Please help me make a well informed decision on this hub.

I only have a couple of months on mine, but so far I'm very happy. No issues, great engagement & they roll great, better than the CB Cobalts they replaced. I researched this wheelset for a long time before pulling the trigger & of the couple of hyper hub reviews I found, they where all positive with no reliablilty issues.
The wheelset is 1169 grams.
Hyper front 15mm TA, Hyper rear 135mm.
Sapim CX-Ray spokes.
Enve XC 26 UST rims.

Thanks!! Nice weight!!!

Coincidentally, my hubs are somewhere in mid air now. Problem now is that I am having problems finding stock for my spokes (Sapim Superspoke). :oops:
