FFS I wasn’t asking a question doofus, I was making the point that the traditionally narrow flanged spacing of the SP seems to have improved quite a bit.
Looking at the spec, the SP 6-bolt is 52mm (c-c) which is actually better than SON which is 47.5mm
Sorry H, got thrown by the question marks.
^ that is a question.
Incorrect.
^ that is a statement.
Plus, if you refer to my original statement at the top, I said get the widebody if you wanted wide flange spacing. (DGAF about discs/non discs)
Coz you can’t google/read, I’ll give you the link, and the measurement.
Wide-Body SON Delux Generator Hub | Off The Beaten Path
Schmidt managed to increase the flange spacing to 68 mm. This not only is 18 mm wider than the standard Delux hub (above left), but even 6 mm wider than the SON28.
They’re all still wider than a rear cassette hub, so buy the one you like the look of.
Um not really applicable for me:
There is no disc version
Blakey its you who is being the pain in the arse here… H was asking a rhetorical question, so technically speaking he wasn’t asking a question ACTUALLY… Your constant attempts to belittle him seem like like nothing more than bullying and its Bullshit. Cut it out. Start acting more like a mod and less like an arsehat.
In any case, equal flange spacing will build a stronger wheel, so the SP should be as good if not better than the SONdelux (on paper at the very least).
Good advice here Joel, I am going to buy an SLX rear hub for commuting!
Thread dig-
I lost one of the little connectors on my SP hub.
Do I need to buy the specific SP branded male/female connector, or is the Shimano ones compatible??
Thanks Beardos…
Shimano ones are fine. I’m using one on my SP hub.
Cheers MikeD
I need one Mikdee. Where can I get one from?
Yeah me too. Looks like Bike24 or Jenson

Melbourne
Commuter, ~$3.
Or probably any store with a Shimano AU account, I’ll check tomorrow
