Titanium goodness

Titanium goodness by marcus_jb1973.
Saved about 160 grammes and feels so smooth and efficient compared to either the FAG or Shimano units. Should hopefully last longer as well.

Looks lovely!

I'm thinking about getting one for my singlespeed -

Has it got the standard notches on the cups to use a shimano tool to install?

How has it lasted through the winter?

Do the bearings look a standard size for replacement?

Cheers

It's (so far) been great through winter.

Bearings are standard and it does use a standard notched tool to install.

I was getting through the FAG and/or Shimano units on my Brompton in only a few months. Touch wood, this seems to be much much higher quality (which, of course, you pay for!).

That's great news as I've just ordered one from dotbike.com!

Looking forward to getting my hands on it.

Thanks for the help.
