LF: rear hub recommendations Can't Post
Guys i have an old ROLF wheel and blew out the rear rub during a sprint race (still finished it!!!) earlier this year.

I want to buy a replacement hub but these are few and far between from the original source and unreliable. (rolf/trek)

Can someone point me to a company that makes hubs or maybe just a generic hub that takes a shimano casette... problem is the hub i have here is 16spoke..

Many thanks,
eel

Not many choices that will fit with the existing spoke length either. Have you looked at used Rolf wheelsets on ebay? You could buy an entire used set for what it would cost you for a hub, assuming you could find one.

I'm thinking TUNE might have one that will work. Awesome hubs, but pretty expensive.
