Hope Pro II !!

[Gooby]

I would not thought this was possible but I have managed to break the axel (maxle size) on a Hope ProII rear hub! Has anyone managed to break a ProII let alone snap a axel?

[Digga]

No, how?

Did you land a gap jump short? Grand Canyon?

A mate is on his 3rd or 4th Pro2 Maxle in the space of 8 or 9 months. Even the uprated solid BETD axle broke. Others have had issues too so these threads might be worth a read

Interesting, thank fk my Nicolai helius Am has the 'fat', non-lite maxle!

Never had issues with any of my Pro2's front 20mm, QR or Maxle rear.

Personally sounds more like an issue with these Maxle Lite axles to me...

[Gooby]

Okay! So it is the maxle light that is causing the problem!

This is one of the faults thats fixed in the new Pro II Evo.

Get onto Hope. Some people have had a new axle FOC. If not hassle them for a discounted upgrade to the evo setup. It requires a new Freehub assembly IIRC
