|   48 hole track hubs??? | Frank Tuesday
Dec 30, 2003 7:51 AM | | I'm in the process of building up a tandem track bike for road use. RAGBRAI, here we come. I've never seen one before, but does anyone know of a 48 hole track hub. Both the riders are 220+, so we need the strongest wheel possible. I suspect a 36 hole rhino lite on a high flange hub will be enough, but more is more.
