Ya the axiom one seems very similar to Woodman. May have diff bearings or something but mine has bee going strong for a while.

Im almost possitve that that is the same hub as the Axiom.. At least, they look pretty much the same. Ive seen this hub a few times under different names, probally some overseas production.. But its a good hub.

I've been running a Axiom SS for two years now... no complaints. I've just had to tighten it up a few times, that's it.
for 100$ can't go wrong... it's just a bit heavy.

thanks for the input.
I really like the freewheel designed ones (like the paul, surly, on one) rather than the ones with the shortened freehub body.

Pretty much exactly the same as the axiom hub. Less hassel to go to a norco dealer and buy one right there...

spot for freewheel, unless you want to use a bunch of spacers on a g-sport.
I'm not into the whole free wheel thing but if you want one the spot is the one. White, Paul and Phil wood are all good and considered standards among ss'ers.
The g-sport is about the toughest hub you can get.
