Hi all
My LBS is selling the Enve 4.5 in 2 freehub configurations: one with DT180, and the other with Powertap G3 power meter.
Even though I don't need another power meter, would I be better off buying the one with the Powertap G3?
Also what I don't understand is the one with the Powertap G3 is 10% cheaper... is it because the hub is inferior to the DT180?
Which Enve 4.5 hub?

The DT 180 is not a great hub itself. The bearings are quite small in there and prone to quickly wearing.

The g3 is like heavy like a brick...
both hubs are old...meaning been on the market for awhile. Make sure the rims have the textured brake track... if not then pass on both.
