Thanks for this advice, I checked in with a couple of LBS's and got a good deal on a new set.mattsccm wrote: ↑23 Mar 2021, 6:10am There are many good builders out there. Some have been named. Personally I prefer local so that I can speak to them easily. Ask local people or shops. Maybe find you local club and ask, even if it's by their social media outlet.
As said. If we knew the bike or the wheel details we could help more as well as knowing where you live.
The Shimano HB-RM60 and Shimano FH-RM60 are classic Shimano "cup and cone" hubs, albeit low-ish end ones (roughly Alivio level ?) and plenty of modern alternatives exist. Note that the differences between these hubs and the next level up is supposed to be the simpler seals (+ bearings see below). Generally Alivio level hubs have single lip seals - wheras the next level up Deore level hubs generally have "labyrinth" seals where there is a rubber seal on the axle and on the hub that form a labyrinth to stuff getting in. That said your hubs have outlasted your rims suggesting the Alivio level of sealing has worked well for you.matt_twam_asi wrote: ↑22 Mar 2021, 3:01pm ....
Have the Shimano RM60 hubs been discontinued now? If so, what are the modern alternatives?
