Strengths:    It works (so far). I like that it makes a nice symmetrical rear wheel. It should make for a stronger rear wheel in the long term.

Weaknesses:    Price, I dont remember exactly how much it cost, but the built-wheel was not cheap. I was not able to find it as a complete wheelset.

Bottom Line:   
The ENO hub is what it says it is. Its a very clean way to convert your geared cross country frame to run as a Single Speed. My only gripe is that it was not cheaper. But, you have to pay to play. I have had a few rides on the hub so far and it works fine. No issues with slippage using a regular skewer/quick release. It's pretty easy to adjust the chain tension.

Its nice that you can get it with either Shimano Centercrock or ISO 6-bolt disc patterns.

I took a few flamin' Chilis off for the high price tag.

Bottom Line:   
What's up? No one's reviewed this product yet? It's been on the market for how long?

I don't have one but am considering it. Mostly I want to know how well it holds chain tension etc.

I guess if I buy one, I'll review for reals.
