Hello
Just a quick question, can anyone tell me how heavy one of these hubs is please?
It looks like this one:
http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?p=701711
The reason for my question is rather long-winded but revolves around 'to rebuild or not rebuild' - the hubs are currently in a wheelset that seems to be very heavy and I'm try to work out if the hubs are the reason for the weight or not. (If they'renot then they will get a new lease of life - as they are running perfectly - in a new set of rims with light spokes etc....
Yes, I could remove the hub but I am hoping that someone has one sitting on the shelf which they can put on the scales.
I did Google the question and expect the answer to be 290-320g but that doesn't seem to reflect the weight of the whole wheel.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Tim
