[RBW] Re: Newbie here: Are Phil Wood hubs worth it.

White industries M15 hubs are pretty much bomb proof - they look perdy - lighter than the Phil's and cost quite a bit less coin. I am not saying they are better then a Phil hub but I've got one on the back of my Bleriot and I am nothing but happy with it .http://www.whiteind.com/rearhubs/cassetteh

Have the Hetres on my Bleriot - awesome tires, nothing faster for gravel and ruff roads. I have the V.O. Zepplins with the Dia-compe 750 center pulls ( these brakes work and look great - a great deal for the price) and I have a V.O. Carrier front rack. It was a little beyond me to install all this
