A couple of more comments on the hubs. There is a little step milled into the the back of the hub flange on 3 of the 6 sides so the rotor hat can't fall off the back side of the hub. Also, notice the drive pins are milled directly into the hub. This is the lightest hub we have ever made (and the most expensive one too!)

The hub is made from billet 17-4 PH. The precipitation hardening gives it that cool bronze look.
