Are Topo hubs still available anywhere? A quick search didn't turn up much except for topo hubs from Performance which I am doubting are the real ones. Or are they? Please let me know I'm looking for these for an inexpensive and durable touring buildup.

Wow

Topo is a Performance house brand

So all those rave reviews about this great hub turns out to be a Performance House brand. Never thought highly of 'house brands' but I guess I need to change my mind.

I depends on where the house brands are sourced, too. Sometimes they are coming off the same production line as the pricey name brands. Sometimes they are low-end price leaders.

Remember all those mid-to low end clipless pedals that looked like year or two old Ritcheys? All came out of the same factory.
