Thanks, after 2 years of use in tough conditions (cobbles,mud, trails, skidwhips):
- Front hub: still has smooth bearings, but the wheel no longer stops spinning always at the same position (if it is comprehensible)
- Rear hub: one bearing worn, one really worn, you can feel the balls :s but they are easily replacable if needed.
it is just boring to need to buy victoire splined cog if you don't live nearby a reseller
Still some good hubs in my opinion.

I'd say phils are overpriced for it's specs : vertical flanges, no dust caps for bearing protection.
And I saw now victoire makes some threaded ones now (for regular cogs)

great ! really agressive and stiff, though the stem is too long for riding in the city it is really stable when riding fast...

Me too, I think it is a bit bulky but it is for the good cause and the weldings are really smooth
