they couldn't get better, I helds the KH Ti hub at unicon and the weight difference compared to a stock KH hub (which i was holding in the other hand) was amazing.

Wow, so around US$500 or more.

What we really need is the KH/Schlumpf hub in titanium, because it's so heavy. I imagine that would be US$2500 or $3000.

According to UDC, you add $460 onto any KH that you want to upgrade to Ti. So with the base price of a KH hub being $62 (they only have the 07 up for purchase), the Ti hub should cost $522.

Interestingly:
Profile hub with Ti axle and Magnutanium cranks (870g) $384

KH Ti Hub with Onza Tensile cranks (864g) $634

So for $250 dollars more, you only lose 6g. I think I'll buy myself some Profiles.

Yeah for trials or muni thats fine. But for anyone wanting a lighter set for street, freestyle or distance the profiles are out of the question. 145 is too long
