I picked up a SS XC wheelset for $200 with a Titanium driver, ripped the hubs out from the hoops and I'm currently lacing them up to some Rhyno Lytes.

Boxxer - damn the Tonic Fab is sweet! Eye candy for sure.

I'm running Profile hubs on 2 sets of wheels and have been happy w/ them. They perform solidly and look good. What more do you need?

Now where are you getting the colored ano front hubs? On profile's website all they offer is chrome and ano black.

Im special:biggrin:

That was one of brads 07 forks. I did a little work on it as well. Shoot him an email and he'll take care of you.

Profile can do custom colors, call and talk to Charlie. It will cost more and take time.

anybody? how do they compare to kings or hadleys asfar as engagment?
I don't know the actual numbers but the Profiles seem to engage almost as quick as my King hubs. I know I like how the Profile's feel when pedaling and rolling back.

I have hadleys and kings and profiles. The profiles dont engage as quick as either the hadleys or kings, but I like the way the sound the best. If you pull the driver off and look at the pawls, they look like what youd expect: burly, clean and well made.

The bike I ride the most rocks the profiles.

engagement is not a quick but the hubs are beefy as hell and they last forever and can take a beating
