I was lucky enough to get my hands on a few pairs of Sidekick hubs and Flux rims early and have been blown away. Truly an amazing product. The new hub is silent and corrects the effects of the kickback on the suspension. You can adjust the float without any tools to 3 positions (12, 15 and 18) and so far I have ran the 18 degrees dead band. I experienced less noise, less feedback and fatigue on the feet and legs, less drag, more comfort, control and stability, a smoother vision on the trail and more speed. The carbon rims are also more compliant vertically and forgiving while still rigid laterally as well as super solid. They come with lifetime warranty anyways. There is also an alloy option for the lower budgets. I did not think I would enjoy a set of wheels this much, but I'm sold now. Swipe to see some action from my last video on the Flux wheels.
