I’ve been working on this for the past month, and finally it’s paid off. I need to get an order of 10 sets of Profiles to make this price happen. Expect shipping time to be one week plus the time it takes for the parts to get from Florida to your location. A UPS tracking number will be provided. Here are you options, if you have any questions/comments or are interested then drop me a PM or e-mail.
is there a possibility to get the hub in a custom color at that price? how does payment work? do we individually pay profile or do we pay you then a group payment to profile?
That price does include bearings.
The first order will go in when I have 10 orders, if you don’t make it in that order than you’ll have to wait until the next. Currently there are 3 definate orders already. Payment will be done through me and then sent to Profile. Cash / Check / Money Order / or Credit Cards are acceptable. They’ll be run through the bike shop, Acme Bike Shop, that I’m working with.
Many people have expressed interest in a 48 hole hub setup. There are a few a 20, 24, 26 and even 700cc rims available in a 48 hole pattern. This just opens up the availability as to what can be built in terms of a bomb-proof setup.
by 20 do you mean 20" or 19"?
so far i’ve never heard of a 48 hole mod trials rim. it would be kind of nice though. given that these are probably like hens teeth, you might want to source them too.
i’ve already got a lovely trials setup so i won’t be after one of these for a while.
can you post to the uk? also i presume the set comes with the lifetime warrenty? if so does this warrenty include general wear and/or misuse eg crazy drops?
I can post to the U.K.
Plan to spend some extra $$$ to cover the shipping cost across seas. The warranty should stand, I think Profile built them knowing we’d be doing crazy stuff.
So 20’’ rims and 19’’ rims are different? I know that sounds like a stupid question but I thought a 19’’ rim took 20’’ tires so people just called them 20’’ sometimes.

could you set up a purchase number or code directly through profile for this group buy? this way, when you have enough people to get the discount, the individual can give the purchase number or code to profile with there payment and then the discount would come through once all 10 people have submitted their orders. people may feel more at ease dealing directly through profile and it may be easier on you so you don’t have to handle all of the money. just a thought.
I already contacted Profile about something like that. It’s just too much hassle for them, and the shipping department. I’m getting all this through the bike shop I’ve been doing work at. All orders will be shipped from Profile to the bike shop, and then distributed by me out to the “people”.
