When did I once say I was on the cutting edge? And why on earth do you bring my bike into this discussion when we aren't even talking about dh mtb. And when does someones bike show their technical ability? Like I said, I built my bike stout because I have other hobbies and got tired of replacing crap on a monthly to yearly basis. In the end, you need to step it down a notch big. All I did was make a comment and you just bash on me for it. Why don't you just stop commenting back to me and just find something better to do...

Btw, nice to see another Brit around here :D I'm half British so I gotta represent the UK a little bit :)

and remember big tard, profile casettes use larger aluminum center axles. The only reason they have 3/8's is because it was standard. They would most likely happily use their own diamater if more frames accepted it, being it's LIGHT AS HELL ALUMINUM, not steel.

And whats up with the comment about my tomac? because its heavy? Because I don't crunch grams for a bike I beat the shit out of on a daily basis. I had light parts on it, and I got tired of breaking shit. I got tired of destroying aluminum cranks, and I got tired of the ride height of my 888's. So I built it heavy and haven't had to replace a part in well, almost 2 years now. Much different than changing crank arms out every season, or getting new bars and seats every crash. Look at my bmx bike. Its built to race. Sure I have heavier wheels, but none the less, its as light as it can be for how big tall I am. And yes, almost in every instance, you can make bigger diameter lighter. Go take a physics class... you will learn all about that there.

No they are not mackster. Look up your gram count. The front hub weighs the same as most other front hubs. They are in no way heavy. If you don't believe me... well check out the listing of hub weights... http://weightweenies.starbike.com/listings/components.php?type=hubs

Yeah, I don't have my clifcat any more. I ovalized the headtube of it, then bill(owner of clifcat), repaired it welding on a 1.5", and I threw it on ebay. The razor rock hub I had used a unique "Milled ramp faced clutch engagement". It had a long throw for engagement, and was loud as hell when idaling, but it was solid as hell with about 24 teeth and 24 opposed teeth all engaging simontaniously. Funny thing, when my bro would ride with me(allways behind), he said he could listen to the ratcheting to tell if I was slowiing down or speeding up. lol

If you're confused as to what I mean by "Milled ramp faced clutch"(which i'm sure isn't the correct technical name), here's a pic. of my best rendering of it on windows paint:

What frame do you have with a 20mm rear thru-axle? Also what hub do you have for it?

I used to have an '03 Clifcat Tankass with a Razor Rock 20mm X 160mm.
