Unboxing superstar V6 hubs
Just received these new bike hubs for a new wheel build. I usually buy hope stuff but They seem like a good alternative and cost half the price! They are also claimed to be made in the UK. What’s not to dislike? If you have any questions leave it in the comments. I’ll keep you updated with how they get on.

Unboxing an exotic carbon fibre mtb fork
มุมมอง 2.3K5 ปีที่แล้ว
I’m building up an old XC bike into a fully rigid gravel and touring monster. The forks on the bike were heavy so I decided to buy some rigid carbon forks from the brand Exotic. My first impressions are good. I’ll check in when the bike is built to let you know how they ride. Comment if you have any questions and I’ll try to answer them.

Great views on the ridgeline! First ride in the Malverns on a cold, windy, wet Friday night. Using new Hope R4 and exposure joystick lights. A couple of highlight descents.

After having several cheap Chinese lights that broke and didn't retain charge I decided to fork out the extra cash and get a hope light. It certainly has that factory bling about it.

trent lock kayaking whitewater nottingham
Done this in the 1960s with 2 wooden framed stretch canvas canoes, 2 of us, one in a single seater and one in a 2 seater, both very heavy and we paddled all the way into the Trent by clifton bridge
How have these held up over the last couple of years? Thinking of setting a set and building up some wheels for my hardtail as 26" wheelsets dont seem to exist anymore.
hey buddy, you still have that fork? how is? still alive and kicking?
What grade.? Nice an fast..
looks like a solid 4
nix time record in landscape view lol i have one to like those forks, just in ALU.. little difference in weight but it should last way more years.. carbon doesn't last forever
Hey brother. Please share your thoughts. Is it worth getting? I would like to replace 10-year old RockShox Dart 3 which is almost rigid)
*I love this kayakσσ>**share4.photo/RiotKayak?Ӗㅋ** Easy for me to paddle around in. I feel stable sitting in it; although I do stick to the lakes & slower moving waters.*
Good level, nice edit 👍🏻
Are those the 3k version?
looking at a pair of these for an old stumpjumper. How are they?
It's been 9 months since your post so I'll ask you the same question since you've probably already gotten them by now. How are they?
Hi, how do the v6 hubs compared to hope pro 2 evo?
Hi, the finish of the anodizing and the design/ servicing are very similar. The end caps for the front hub are a little loose in comparison to pro 2s. Probably not as noisy as the pro II either. I plan to do a more long term review in a couple of months, be sure to watch.
How have these lasted long term?
Hi! Where is this mountain?
how secure is the velcro battery strap?
pretty good, I have been out trail running with it on my head and it didn't loosen.
javelin1701 thanks, i got a hope district for the rear and an exposure toro for the front, do you always wear a helmet when out on trail?
Hi I also have an exposure light and they are brilliant! I usually run handlebar front light and smaller light on the helmet for riding trails in the dark.
Uncleseeger like sh1t to a blanket mate.
Looks great
I've just bought the slicyer version, the Riot Slice
When was this filmed mate? I'll be goin up myself in morning hope it's dryed out
Nearly overshot on a couple of those switchbacks!! Nice vid - Give me a shout if ya wanna do Cannock at nt - It's great 👍
Didn't read the shout - kind of you - many thanks 👍
Nice! (Sure I recognize that dog & bike at the beginning 😂) All the best 👌
Downtube shifting? What's it like? :D
One bike I built was a fixie ( so not downtube shifters to contend with). The other bike had downtube shifters. It can be a bit fiddly finding the gear and its pretty much impossible to change gear if you are going for it hard up a hill.
Yo javelin1701, Nice video ! We are french riders, we work with the filmmaker GoldenHelmets, can you give us a review/commentary of our channel ? ;)
I built up a steel framed 1985 Schwinn Tempo with modern compact gearing, but it still has friction shifting. I ride it more than my modern Felt carbon bike. Steel is real!!!
The Claud Butler is so cool. From the comments it was stolen? Looks like a more modern crankset and mtb pedals. What was the running gear? And SICK colour!!!
Thanks, yes it was stolen. You haven't seen it about? it had more modern groupset parts; ultegra cranks, 600 arabesque downtube shifters, dura ace front and rear derraileurs and I think a 5 speed freewheel casette on old maillard hubs with rigida rims.
Really is alloy real!! Beautiful bike!!
Whitwick woods is a great place, some nice runs and views :) Nice riding mate
what's the kayak your using
its a riot glide. the design is about 20 years old
Any jumps there
There is one jump at the end of the first downhill line and there are some in a big crater in the other half of the woods. ( near the finish of the first downhill line in the video.
This your first time up hemlock?
Second time up. First time was nice and dry, It was pretty muddy and slippery when I went this time. Hopefully will get back there again soon.
Still have mine, and ocean-surf it!
looks like a fine build! I rode 531 frame for 10 years and had a good time riding it.
Thanks! unfortunately these bikes were stolen 2 years ago.

Yes its near coalville
How do you get to the start? What road is it you turn off to get onto the trail? Cheers 👍🏻
Looks familiar... spent a couple weeks w about dozen other paddlers from U of London back in 89'. Nice footage thanks.
Glad you like it! Rivers are North Esk, Findhorn, etive, etive tributary, Nevis
Is this whitwick woods it Leicestershire near Coalville!!
Where does the trail at 2.58 start from?
there is a fallen tree blocking the start now, however, if you look at the vid at 0.11secs you can turn off to the right behind the rock. Follow your nose and you are on it. Took me ages to find it
Did that today! One of the best Rides I think I have ever done!How can there be so little climbing compared to the mass of wonderful downhill?!?!I don't know if everyone knows but this ride passes within an inch of the Lady Canning Go Outdoor track! ( only managed one go at it, nearly killed me.... Well worth a look, just don't be tempted to spend all day there and miss this awesome ride!)
Not worth the money buddy. Looked cool when first seen on Sturges vid but once everyone knows how it's its done the novelty wears off. Best just having a GoPro on helmet and a guy on the bank with a decent zoomable camera then edit the two together. Your Nevis video rocks btw. More G4+ river running I say!
Keep watching this, It's great. Hope to work up to run this one day. Whats the feather angle on your paddle? I was thinking about going for a lower angle, perhaps even zero.
great
That is so cool!
nice build
looks sweet :)
is that the one near Abergavenny?
that must be really low
Man i went kayak surfin on rest bay yesterday! was awsome
I always go 2 rest bay and im buyin a kayak soon!
