Hi to all,

what do you think of these very light MTB hubs? any comments and weaknesses you ever encountered?

A few people have had problems with part of the axle breaking.

However, why get the AC ones when you can get the essentially identical (and nicer looking) WTB
Laserdisc lites for much less $$$? I've abused mine - racing (XC, DS but I only jumped the tables,
not the doubles, and a bit of easy DH), small drops (up to 3' to flat), and general all around
bashing, and they've been great.

BTW, yes they're disc hubs, but I don't see why you'd buy a set of wheels without disc hubs unless
you're a total weight weenie. Makes much more sense for upgradability! Throw a normal rim on there
and you can use it for whatever brakes you want.
