So , would you upgrade the hubs , and if so , to which ?
The Surly's hubs dont have seals on them? Really?...its 2021, how can a hub for a bike that costs this much not have a simple seal on it?
- I doubt there is no seal at all.
- Im guessing the site should have typed 'cartridge bearings' instead of 'sealed bearings'.
- If the hubs really dont have a seal at all, then getting any compatible hub with seals will be an upgrade. Shimano, DT, Bitex, Joytech, Hope, etc etc etc.
