I ride in the rain and also lock my bike up outside at work and it gets rained on more than a good bike should. They (the hubs) are easy to disassemble with out any tools. I'm pretty lazy about maintenance so I haven't bothered to do anything with them yet but when I decide to I know it couldn't be any easier. That said, I don't claim to be knowledgeable about hubs so I may have missed something. But certainly no complaints after 1.5 years on them. Of course any Compass tire will have very low rolling resistance and it's smart to have built in room to grow (just in case). I just ordered some snowqualmie tires for the Chevy-ut and then I need to figure out the fender-brake combo that will make it all work. I saw another guys on here had a similar build so I will have to copy what he did. The snakeskin fenders greatly look awesome on any bike. They are bike-bling
