I used PW hubs and bottom brackets for years on a tandem, and on one of my racing bikes.
Since everyone has covered the advantages, I'll mention one possible negative: PW hubs aren't all that sophisticated in terms of the bearing seals, so if you use the hubs in extreme conditions, they may not yield the level of reliability that they have for most users. That said, the only reports that have ever emerged (to my knowledge) on hub failures have come from the randonneuring community, who may tend to ride longer and in worse conditions that all but the most extreme cyclists in other categories. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
