Hi,
I'm pretty new to the forums and was wondering what everybody's thoughts were on these hubs...
http://www.trueprecision.net/index.html
Like?
Dislike?
Rumors?
Experiences?

I kinda like the idea of a silent hub, and the instant engagement sounds good, too.

Read the reviews on mtbreview.com, and there were thirteen positives and one negative. Seems pretty good, right?
Would like to make sure they are worth the money before i spend $300.00
on a hub, yeah know?
Thanks,
chris

The stealth hubs are amazing, if you got the cash buy them now! you will not regret it i promise...the instant engagement is amazing, works wonderfully. if you have. people buy these hubs because of that instant engagement, and that is why they are so awfully expensive. oh yeah i work at a pretty reputible shop and have never really heard a bad thing about them. go buy them now if you can afford it.

ive heard they can blow up. ive seen some pictures of ones with broken hub shells

very heavy. I found water got in very easily...leading to rust and sticky clutch.

Mine sits unused as backup.

On the other hand, the noisy chris king hubs seem to work for me. Same with hadley hubs.

Thanks for all the input!!!
I emailed the company and it sounds like they are revamping the mountain bike hubs,
because they said that the hub prototype should be ready in October.
Keep the info coming!!!
thanks,
