Yes I definitely need one

Yes!!!!! 🤣 I have a problem

🤣🤣 at least you know the review is real and I actually rode it 😉 And I got lazy, if I didn’t do the video I probably would have forgot

These are straight but think they changed to all j-hook on their wheels now.

Really!! Dang that sucks. I’ve been lucky so far

I thought it would be a direct fit, but I did have to take maybe 1-2 links out. Check the limit screw first if it’s dropping it off the cog, Might need to check your b-gap, or if the derailleur hanger is straight also.

Yea, I assumed since I went from mechanical GX to AXS that it would be the same. But was definitely a little off.

Or you can deflate the rear suspension till the sign of the sag ? Is a solution ?

You are corrected, I realized that after the fact. I assumed since I had gx eagle already that it would just work. But had to adjust and remove a link.

$540 with a coupon, but it is $600 normally.

I had the Spank Hex hubs. I love them especially for the price. Wheel and high engagement hub for under 300 with a coupon code.

Nice I bet that’s going to be sweet

3 lower bolts? The only thing I had to adjust was the electronic micro adjustment. If your meaning on the derailleur, I did just set the B gap for my bike. Everything else was good to go

@@chimpwithabike5657 sorry meant to type 2

I mean I have taken mine off and on tons of times, but according to SRAM. The power link is a one time use thing. Says the initial install you will hear the loud click to know its locked. But after subsequent uses the link will not lock as tightly and may come off during a time the chain is slack. But Im going to continue to reuse and just care a spare, just in case.

@@chimpwithabike5657 I have master links falling apart when they are not fit but sone as you click on they are rock solid. 9ne time use its only good for manufacturers and resellers to drain you from money. new GX chain £25- £30 and one master link £4.99 🤣

Yes I got mine earlier than I thought I would and had a coupon code. Made it at a lot easier to be like… oh babe I got a discount and Im getting it early.

@@MagnusVonMaggie I needed the discount too 😂 I just got engaged and was faced with a decision of an engagement ring or a bike derailleur. Ended up getting both. Ouch 😂

@@mylowoutdoor8413 happy wife & happy husband

It’s a 125

Yes and no. I would say it close but a different pitch on the sound. The hydra sounds more high pitched and like there are more angry bees.

@@chimpwithabike5657 Maybe more close to Torch, not Hydra.

Perhaps, I’ve never heard a torch in person that I know so can’t say.

There is not enough play to hear that clunk like on lower engagement hubs. But yes I know what your talking about. My 370 hubs would do that, I would go to pedal and I’d hear that clunk before it grabbed. I don’t get any clunking with these

@@chimpwithabike5657 would you mind making a <30 second clip of u doing that? Would be much appreciated!

No it was a no name that came with the bike. Tried googling around and didn’t anything specific. So after lots of searching I came across a threat showing the wire.

Thanks, yes it is Definitely louder. Almost as loud as a hydra with a lower pitch and doesn’t sound like it has as many engagement point (which it doesn’t).

@@chimpwithabike5657 no problem, good to know! I currently have a 370 and it's a lot louder than most other low engagement hubs, so this one must be really loud. Did you need to install rim tape too or was the wheel fully tubeless ready?

😂 come on down let’s ride and let me try out the king and you can shatter mine and get I can get a warranty replacement lol

I’ve heard of them but never had a chance to ride them. Had to look up the video on what the king difference is. Looks pretty damn solid (and expensive)

I’ve been using some white synthetic stuff from FastLine. But what would you recommend to use?

@@chimpwithabike5657 first u need to use degreaser to get rid of all the grease, but don't spread degreaser into the Hub because they would damage ur bearings, spray onto a blue shop towel and clean up the grease. Then u put 1 or 2 drops of oil into each pawl and its spring, and 1 Or 2 drops of oil on the drivering. Use ur finger to tap each pawls lots of times so the oil can work its way in, and spread the oil on the drivering with ur finger. Oil u can use expensive special Hub oil Or WD-40 wet Chain Lube, Or something better, muc-Off wet chain Lube, Or fancy stuff like muc-Off wet ceramic Lube.

@@chimpwithabike5657 I'm thinking about getting the wheels when it's back in stock. Loads of good reviews out there and good price. Very attractive. Where did u get them from?

I’ll give it a try

Good luck, tell me what you think when you get them

That’s awesome, glad your enjoying it. I was gonna post something else about it soon, because I’ve taken it on several trips and had blowout rock slashes mid ride on rocks and not even a dent.

The funny thing you mention nukeproof , I brought the new nukeproof horizon v2 wheelset recentl , really happy with the wheels . Have since found out the hubs are the spank hex hubs with nukeproof branding on them . Same hubs .

@@camwells9726 i had horizon wheels v1 last year. My hubs were brown and made by novatec. I send them back after few rides. Not very good wheels. I've heard good reviews about V2 and now a set of 29 boost cost £350 at chain reaction and I'm tempted to buy a set 👍🏻 They look very nice and sound good. I'm glad you mentioned that nukeproof uses spank hubs. They look solid. PS - I no longer have nukeproof scout. I cracked the frame few weeks back and now I got Banshee paradox V3 frame with spank wheels 👍🏻

@@MartinTeerly ive only had a few rides so cant speak of the longevity , but the ride quality is good , fast engagement , fast rolling

I got the Spank 359

@@chimpwithabike5657 thanks

Not saying they are better and don’t have enough time riding the others to compare, But I paid at the time 275 ‘ish with a coupon code. Even at the current 399 for a new 30mm wheel with high engagement hub. It’s a pretty good bang for your buck.

@@chimpwithabike5657 I agree these are very nice and going to be a trail shredder I need 1 for my 2020 treck roscoe rear hub is unsealed for some stupid reason

I don’t think I have ridden enough different wheels to really tell yet. I was in bentonville last week and I will say I hit a rock and slashed my tire and rolled in a rock garden for a bit before I noticed. The wheel had a scratch from the rock hit but there was no dents or bends. Wheel seems really strong. On the website it says it’s rated for downhill enduro 🤷🏻‍♂️ I’m about 215 and it’s taken jumps, drops, and rocks

That I’m not sure I know they had changed up the line up, I believe to make it simpler

Can’t say that I have. Have got quite a bit of riding in, with plenty of rocky chunky areas and jumps. I don’t have a lot of experience with other “premium” wheels. But compared to stock wheels that are on my other bikes I feel these roll pretty fast and don’t notice the weight. For 300 or under with coupon you really can’t beat what you get.
