Anyone had issues with these wheels, specifically the freehub? I’ve been to a couple bike shops lately for various bits and pieces and they’re all said the freehub sounds like it’s gone. Including one Trek dealer who said they’d replaced a couple vision wheels.

I’ve had the bike a year and a half, and it had a full service 5 months ago which I thought would’ve identified any issues with the freehub when they serviced it.

Sorry, typically I don't like to bash brands, but Vision freehubs are really crap.

I have used one of their cheaper models (I think it was the Team 35) as trainingset and the freehub was gone after ~2.100 miles.

The fun part was that a replacing freehub costs twice as much compared with one of the freehubs from Mavic or Fulcrum.
