Miche Track Hubs Flange Size?
Available in low flange and high flange--any particular reason to prefer one over the other, or is it just appearance?
If just appearance, which is more popular?
Thanks.

Hig-flange hubs (in theory) build a stiffer wheel, low-flange look classy as ****.

High flange rear, low flange front FTW.

EDIT: More important is the fact that single-sided rear hubs look WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better than flip-flop hubs.
