    The thing is, I can't see how relacing the hub would have any effect on
    the strength. All the flanges do is attach the hub to rim, and how
    could the flanges themselves actually break? ... strain when doing
    drops etc is put on the axle and cranks, rim and spokes. I suppose if
    your rim broke then the other end of your spokes may take some stress
    and break due to weak flanges? Can anybody elaborate?

    What I am concerned about is that I bend it back, weakening it more.
    Then after lacing it up and riding they bend back in and the tear gets
    longer and more puls away from the axle and it get worse and worse and
    I have to de-lace then rebuild my wheel with a new hub and I wont be
    able to ride again.
