Silly question, I need some suggestions for a front hub for my '94 Altitude build.
I'm building it as a single speed with an ENO eccentric rear in silver, so I'm looking for something non-boring in silver for the front, could go with a matching WI hub, but I don't really feel like it.
Hoping for something retro that isn't too fragile or unreliable.
There are a few NOS XC Pro greaseguard hubs on eBay which seem oddball enough to be attractive and plenty of
"usual suspect" Shimano XT, XTR stuff, yawn...
It'll be a traditional Rocky build aside from the SS setup, Syncros stem and post, Raceface chainset, Dia Compe 986 canti's with SS-5 levers.
If you guys have suggestions, I'm game.
Or, if you want to light the torches and gather your pitchforks I can always gather up some M900 stuff and go with gears
Thanks, Ted
