Bob, if you can identify a number at which the price could drop again I think that would be good to know. As with most group buy projects, I seriously doubt that every member that "might" make a purchase will be aware of this deal. If we end up being 2 orders short of the next quantity break (as an example) someone (s?) may step up and buy the last few for sale later to ensure the price break is reached.

Agreed: I'm on the fence at the moment but if the price drops again I might buy to have the hubs "just in case".

How much the price is going to drop I can not say as it depends on numbers but it will not be a lot and I will adjust everyone who has paid accordingly with the postage.
When you look at the cost of the standard discs/hubs then this is comparable, if you wish to sit on the fence for few quid so be it.

Blair, Doug,

This is likely to be a one-time run, as far as the cost goes, the initial purchase with discs and bearings is going to be the same price as OEM discs and bearings, but from there on you won't need to change your bearings until they wear out (there goes a major pain in the a*se) and replacing the discs is going to be cheap, as you'll only need to get commonly available discs.

If you are thinking of upgrading the rears, even if you don't go with Bob's solution, these hubs have got to be a must, haven't they?

I have made a slight alteration to the design but it should not effect anything price or other wise.
