Hi

I'm planning to buy some Bolt-on rear hub on my MTB bike. I would like to buy Dartmoor Vee-one or NS Rotary/Primary hub. Doem anybody have some experience with those hubs?? Is good idea to put them on MTB bike. Some pics on the scale please (I found Dartmoor pic,but none NS)

Thanks

Martin

Isn't the Vee-one just a normal hollow axle with bolt in ends (much like you'd get with Halo bolt through skewers) but a bit lighter, takes a little (a minute) longer to fix a puncture, I use Halo's on my commuter, can't see an issue with using them.
