from Ouray, CO Date Reviewed: July 13, 2007 Strengths: I have had these things on my bike for around 10 years, and they are still working fine. They have never been taken to a bike shop, but they have been lubed a few times. These have been ridden tons of different types of weather, such as going through creeks all day, in the rain, through mud puddles coming up past the hub, in the snow all winter, and hot sun and dust all summer, and they have never been specially taken car of after a ride Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: More than 3 years
