Wanted Cracked hope hub(s)

[Mod-Master]

Seems that this is the time when the hope hubs are starting to crack. I want to conduct a little experiment so I would like any cracked hope hub(s) that you may have lying around.

I've an old Ti-glide rear that cracked around the spoke holes. I was keeping it as I've had it since around '98 when I converted my Zaskar to rear disk and it's got a lot of happy memories tied up in it.

What are you planning on doing to any hubs you get ?

I was thinking I would dremel out the crack with a diamond tipped bit and then re weld it with something.

oh no I actually want to get them back on the road

i think the problem with the blue one and maybe some other knocking about is the area around the spoke holes cracking and disintegrating
