I am dreaming of pairing up stiffi’s shogun wheels with chub hubs. 12mm spokes! probably dumb like,.. get a disc at that point. but i feel like it would be so much fun just to see a setup like that HAHA

Loved my rear chub hub. But the front hubs were skinnier if I recall?
These rims are completely pointless outdoors. Indoor velo maybe. But the disc will still be lighter.
I’d love to see this. Please do it. 🤣
The whole reason these deep ass rims exist is to circumvent ruling in tt races…
Just get a disc at that point.
Here we go… here come the fixie police in the comments
If you need spare spokes, my kids’ bike has plenty – probably just the right length :/
Coolness factor
Dumb? Yes.
Do I want to see it? Also yes.
Better than using stiffi hubs. The threads are shite quality and their overall QC isn’t great
I remember a year ago or so they blocked a load of people on IG for sharing bad experiences as in the comments. Lol
Please show us if you do it.
What kind of tubes do you use for that thing lmao
YES! Do it, OP, and post pics.

I had this exact thought months ago when I first saw those rims, really hoping someone pulls through and actually does it haha
What is the pic of? Those hubs look pretty high flange already
Like a disc wheel with the tiniest bit of give. Imagine popping a spoke lol.
Let your freak flag fly. Post more of this build! Looks rad.
Lace them up snowflake
These would be so wild
Some of us idiots have to sacrifice ourselves for science.
