Looks like a good option. Decent price as well. Would like to do a rear wheel rebuild and get some green bling with some engagement back there...

Cool! Anxious to see the reliability. Are they made in China?

Found my answer:

Designed in Squamish, made in Taiwan.

Pretty standard for most bike parts including DT Swiss 350s.

I prefer higher engagement but these hubs have grabbed my attention nonetheless.

Those are sexy and have a very star rachety looking freehub. Apparantly DT didn't have patents or maybe they expired, or maybe 44t engagement is different. Either way looks good and likely works good for a decent price.

Now I'm all excited about hubs!

The patent expired so now anyone can use the design.

Will you be measuring for true width or degree of engagement?

No, but I would hold them up to my monitor to see if the color is close.

No steel freehub body option, no purchase from me. sucks because otherwise looks good,

OneUp is known for quality products, think these will stand up as well as any hub out there. The price is half that of DT 240’s and a few grams lighter. Trying to build a sub 1500 gram wheel set, most likely gonna give these a go.

The Specialized roval trail carbons are that weight and really strong. I have run 2 sets and am using the sl set on my slash. They are amazing. Check out loam rangers review of them. He put a set on an ebike and tried to break them. He couldn't ! I had an older set for like 8years and no issues! I even had a nasty crash on Mt. Lowe descending , broke 2 spokes on the rear and still bombed them out to the finish on my reign! I went into Incycle and asked If I could repair it , they called speshy for advise. Guess what! They sent me a new one, FREE! And the set was like 4 years old!
FWIW. Traverse sl 240 or control sl’s.

Thanks I’ll check those out.

Thanks I’ll check those out.

I currently have a set control carbon 29 for my slash. Not the sl's. They are in the 1500 gm range actually lighter! I have ridden them through everything. no issues!

Anyone have these mounted on his/her bike? @Bluesrider ?

I'm interested in your experience so far.

Going to Worldwide Cyclery tomorrow to order hubs, I have my spokes and nips picked out already. Now just need to decide on rims.

 

[Bluesrider]

Gotta order my spokes and rims and get these built up. Going with diycarbon rims with Pillar 1420 bladed spokes. They are purty, I like the grey color and got lucky as it was a limited color, it is no longer made.

 

[Bluesrider]

This is a slow going wheel build, but I’m not in a hurry. So I have the One Up hubs and Nextie carbon rims, just need to order my spokes the Pillar 1420 bladed. I used 2 different spoke calculators and they both are pretty much the same. My wheel building experience is limited, so my question is with these calculations for spoke length can I use all 290mm length?
