Whats garbage about the later tune 170s ?
I have had 3 trouble free sets. Currently running them with no issues on my everyday roadbike |

I’m not a weight weenie, it more about the price of $430 for both front and rear in blue that got me going down the Tune path. The $400 was for both front and rear 240’s. I have run the T11’s, but they were constantly in need of adjustment as they would develop lateral movement. Currently my wheels are 24/28 builds, a pair of DT’s on DT 511 rims and Hed Belgium Pluse’s on Dura Ace Hubs. Both of those wheel sets have been solid workhorses.

For more typical 20/24 builds that I do, I like the Carbon-Ti because they are lighter for the pair and a little less expensive. Being straight pull they have limited options. |

For $350 - $400, you can get a set of DA 9000 hubs with skewers that will be much better than White or DT's and a titanium freehub that won't notch. I have seen DT's lose their black finish around the spoke holes after a couple of years and Have seen Whites with a broken flange. I have Dura Ace hubs from 1988 that I still ride.

At 210 lbs, I would stay away from the Tune hubs... a friend had them on her bike and she's 120 lbs and flexed the wheels. Change the hub to DT190's and problem was solved.

That seems very build related not hub related imo.

No, can pretty much guarantee it was hub related. Built by the same master wheel builder, with same rim and same spokes (same model rim and same model spokes). The Tune hubs do flex. Although there's always the possibility that the Tune hubs were faulty to start with (although not very likely).
To add to this though, she's light, but she's a sprinter, so she has peak power. The DT Swiss hubs just flexed less. |
