All I know is that I should get a fine splined hub rather than a coarse one. Opinions, prices, what's the hot ticket?

1) not mine, donno about others. 2) you'd think a bearing version would be better at compensating for wear than splines. i've had mine off maybe a dozen times. if it went on and off a dozen times a weekend in a track (dusty, gritty...) environment maybe there'd be more opportunity for wear, but with reasonable exercise you're not going to experience any, IMO. BTW - my horn button works just fine. you -do- have to pop the button and disconnect the wire if you're going to use the QD feature. if i were doing more track events where i had it on and off a lot, i might find an alternate horn actuation mechanism. PA requires an operable horn on a street car. frankly, i've seen enough clueless people in race track paddocks that IMO a horn is a good idea on a track car too. |
