Superbe Pro hub pics attached. There are marks on the flanges from spoke wear. The front hub spins very smoothly but I think it needs to be repacked with grease; feels dry to me. Can't find the skewers. Thanks.

Other than my Campagnolos, best hubs I ever owned/rode. The aesthetics are amazing, and they roll forever.

U havent put your hands in some sunshine hubs then... those are just up there with the best IMO.
And so far never seen one of the Pro-am or the pro sunshine models with a bent axle ever, well not that ive seen that many either.
The better SunTour hubs were made by Sansin Matsumoto Works, aka Sunshine. Pro-Am hubs were the same as early Superbe. Superbe Pro and Sansin sealed bearing hubs are equivalent. And Specialized sealed bearing hubs are also Sansin hubs.
These are alll top quality Japanese products. But SunTour Superbe Pro hubs have the branding that people recognize.
