from Taiwan Date Reviewed: May 17, 2009 Strengths: I'm from Taiwan so it's easy to get these hubsin the local stores.The trail I ride often combine by several trail,because ride in trail is not favored here(compared to Roadbike).I often ride 20km length trail for weekend recreation(to me,it's better than watch TV).I find Quando hub is improving-you can see this from daily use(although I don't ride offroad everyday).The product I use is trong enough for me(I weigh about 60kg),for riding on sand/dirt/rocks/even for practicing bunny hup,and never have any problem.I also do some race,and in the racing process,I can rely on these hubs...they never disappoint me. Weaknesses: a bit pricey.But caompared to those Shimano stuff,they're quite strong. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Something with huge rocks Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $250.00 Purchased At: LBS Similar Products Used: Shimano XTR(975) Chris King Classic hubs(they're superior,but pricey) Hope Pro2(not easy to get in Taiwan) DT 240s(soso for such price) Bike Setup: Giant XTC with SRAM X-9 groupo
