I need a good QR rear hub that isn't crazy expensive. I'd love a king but I'd like to spend ~200. What options are there? It seems like you go from $70 XT to $350 king with no other options... Are there any pluri-click hubs that hover around $150?

I have run Deore rear hubs for years. I guess I've never had a rim last long enough to justify buying something nicer.

I kept destroying rear hubs (especially XT's), then I bought A Hope Pro II

Would this work?

I too have a Hope Pro II. It's loud, which I like. I don't ride though.

Hope, Azonic.

Looking for higher point engagement than a deore but at a price less than a king? I would probably say hope as well. I have a DT 440 Hub that I'd sell you for cheap but it's 135X12.

Wait, joe, don't you have a few wheels for sale with azonic rear hubs?

Actually I saw a "supa drive" on ebay and am currently investigating. Are they reliable? I don't need a million points of engagement but something more than shimano's 180* drive (as seen on deore) is necessary. My deore-xt upgrade was waaaaaaaaaaaaaay better, but those are built into wheels already.

LOL

I'd consider a hub, but I'm building wheels so I can't do complete.

I had a spin doctor front and rear set up on a dirt jump hardtail. No complaints. It was probably 4 years ago now but i think it was a pretty quiet hub too. if you're into that quiet show no emotion kinda hub.
