Um, hehe. I don't think you added the numbers right. 64g + 204g = 268g, not 208g. Light, but nothing to flip out over. I'm waiting for the new AM classic to come out. Ohhhhhh yeah!

Hey, Superlite!

Are the new am-classic hubs not in production yet? I have a pair of 420 built in january this year, and there have been rumours about the new hubs some time now. The thing is, I don't know if they are old or new? Old style I guess...? I that case, what's changed on the new ones? Remarkably lighter? stronger? Do they still look the same, or can you tell the difference by lookin at them?

Oh, damn, what a big mistake!
I was quite tired yesterday, so here are the good weights: according to the Schockbike website it is 64+164=228g
