Training Wheels!

Sorry, I could not resist.

Nothing wrong with a set of Deore 6-bolt hubs for a solid, basic wheelset. Cheap, reliable, heavy. I bought my last set for less than a rear XT hub alone.

Currently, I am pissed off at my deore hubs. I decided it was time for an overhaul, and when i took my front wheel off, i found out that my axle was broken, no wonder it did not feel smooth. This is the second time this has happened to me. I weigh 155lbs, and ride an NRS.

Well if you want a "training wheel" then you want something with a little "Umph" to it so when you put on your race wheels you feel like you installed a turbo. In this case get a set of XT M756 hubs laced to some Mavic 321's or something and guarentee you that when you put your race set back on you'll really feel like you've aded a turbo to the bike BTW that's my always wheelset and it sure ain't light, but it was pretty inexpensive and takes aserious beating and keeps on ticking.

BTW - Good one Shiggy LMAO
