My recent bike tinkering/wheel fiddling/looking through old stuff/bits of mine got me wondering about this
Basically this:

and this:

Does the LX have better sealing of some sort?
I do have a set of wheels with 610 hubs.
And another on the way from Taylor Wheels.
An old set of LX and XT hubs of mine have an exernal rubber slip-on sleeve but these LX's don't seem to have.
And in truth I was never sure whether that external rubber provided good shielding or just collected grot.
Difference Deore 610 and LX hubs?

Many thanks network man.
Suggest anyone pondering the same issue heads over there.

basically there is no difference anyone has found apart from the finish. I actually prefer the bright silver of the T610 to the gunmetal silver of the T670

A nice thread indeed.
From sensible knowledgeable folk.
And makes me feel especially good as I got a 610 front hub in an Evans sale for £9 the other day - need to go and pick it up - hell in London many/most places you can't get two pints for that.
The wonders of cycling engineering eh?
