When you reach this high price point in component parts, there is a certain level of quality that is expected of the manufacturer. This is one area that Chris King do not disappoint. They use the finest materials with very stringent quality control measures to insure that every hub that goes out the door is one of their best. Choosing one hub or the other at this level is almost impossible.
