SOVOS?

[theRuler]

i have a set of 48 spoke alloys

they are kinlin rims laced to SOVOS hubs

are these hubs any good?

i thought they were just generic, but in another thread someone was offering a pair of tuffs in a trade for some SOVOS wheels


they came on a 1990 bike i bought off the bay. are they of that age?

dj bernice has some on some chrome rims never seen um b4

[theRuler]

mine are quite nice hubs, sealed too i think

[harris]

dont no if they are anygood i run them on my acs z 48s and are spot on but for hard riding i dont no.

[downhill3375]

yeah they look sweet i just don't know owt about um

[TwoBobRob]

Yeah, they ain't bad at all.  A genuine alternative to Peregrines in their day.  You could get wheelsets from Custom Riders and the like with SuperPro rims laced to Sovos hubs and save yerself a couple of quid.  Came in the same variants as well I believe  (sealed/unsealed).  

[theRuler]

what kind of time frame are they from, Rob?

[TwoBobRob]

I'm not 100% on that.  they were around when I came back in 94, thats about all I can tell you I'm afraid   

[theRuler]

they are bob on for my 90/91 bully bashguard then

[TwoBobRob]

Yeah, I reckon.  bang on the money.
