So, I'm talking to this guy about a pair of unbuilt Nuke Proof Hubs for $50.00 shipped. He told me has 3 pairs, 2 used and one unused/never built. He then sends me a pic of what he did to a spent hub. I love it! :heart:

BTW, anyone heard anything good or bad about these hubs? It's not Atom Bomb, just the normal skinny ones that uses the old XTR cassette body.

Um....what is that thing ( Besides a hub with messed up spokes)

That ivory looking stick in the middle of that mess of spokes is a candle.

Ah yes, A CANDLE HOLDER

Funny, it's kinda clean for a candleholder tho... no drippy wax. Must be the leftover TriFlow giving it a non-stick surface...?

Me likey! Just don't let it fall on you!
Isn't there a pictorial thread for alternate use of spent bike parts?

 

[DBR X6 RIDER]

Thanks! It's hanging off to the side where nobody can stand.

I would have to guess that this might be that thread you ask about. I have yet to see such a thread on any of the boards.

On the Chris King website there are hubs that have been converted into salt shakers because the tolerances weren't close enough.

Hum.. notice the lack of price, or maybe I'm just friggin' blind. Does it fall under "if you have to ask...." as w/ most King parts?

 

[Bicyclist]

It's because they never know what they will have. If you call, they will tell you what's in stock and how much they cost.

 

[RideND]

There was a price when I went there way back when. I remember it being at least 64.95 and maybe 124.95 or something. Way out of my price range is what i remember.

 

[Bicyclist]

That's way too expensive. I'll just make my own.

What's wrong w/ the shaker you get when you buy either salt or pepper?
