real usage data is the best way to compare durability for these hubs. The XT has had a lot more axle breakage reports since the switch to aluminum. Yes it is a larger diameter axle to compensate for the much lower yield strength, but the incidental data I've seen ( mostly MTB related) shows a much higher failure rate. Larger ball sizes increase lifespan as well BTW
Considering your weight the heavier LX hubs would most likely be more durable. ~mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
