better to buy a few?

Expect the DA cup and ball to be a distant memory soon(like with the 7700 front
hub and double 7700 rear der). 6500 to follow. I'd say buy a few or be happy
with a 105 level BB in the future, which actually is a 6500 BB with a black
spindle. Nice unit and superior to DA 700, IMO.

Do you know how long they last on average?

Why only the front hub and not the rear hub?

The 10S rear der. is 9S compatible isn't it?

With excellent regular service on a prepped frameset, they last a while. Tough
to adjust well and tend to collect water.

Because shimano is still selling 9s with the triple. ONLY the 7700/DA rear hub
will accept 9s cogsets, the 10s will not(now There's a good idea). The front
hub is either 9 or 10s.

ders...
