Re:

I could be wrong, but I think I see a theme forming here.

Serious note, check those hubs very closely for cracks.

Totally crack free!

Been running the same set-up in silver on my old Cindercone and now transferred on to my Yo, never missed a beat.

May help that I weighed 74Kg in 1994, and still weigh the same now

Re:

Good to hear.

I've been running the same hubs in blue on my Zaskar since 94/5, but managed to kill the front one, and a set of seals in my Marzocchi XC700's with some rather over enthusiastic descending.

All fixed now, but I will be updating to Pace MXCD and later Hope hubs this spring, as its just too good a frame to go careful on.

Around 77kg's here, and proud of it... still could lose a couple of Kg's though.

Thanks! Can you remember what size clamp frot mech is needed on a D.O.G.S?

According to Sheldon Brown there were only 3 sizes, so I'm guessing it's 28.6....
