Patrick,

That conversation probably did happen. I was waffling between 5 and 6 pin hubs and asked Doug about the differences between them during a visit. Doug hates the 5 pin adapters and talked me into the 6 pin hubs.

A lot of guys have the 5 pin adapter set-up with no problems so probably is still a preference rather than an absolute need. Doug's main points were that the 6 pin hubs are stronger, wheels go on and off easier and they're stainless steel - won't rust. They are a work of art. Hidden art, but art just the same.
