Looks like there is another option, with even bigger pinion bearing and more refined bearing retainers that don't crush the ring carrier bearings. 14mm pinion bearing, yeeehaw! Wraith / Yeti Axle V2 Black - Vanquish Products |

They've got thicker walled aluminum on the ends too. ....so more threads for screws that hold the c-hubs/lockouts. I need some of these. When are they going to be available?

The important part is the bearing. I've bitched about this forever. Even to Steve personally. Glad to see it finally done.

Yeah I didn't buy them for any difference in looks...I bought them for extra durability. Both the bigger bearing and the extra thick tubes that provide more threading. I had extra screws drilled through my old hubs/lockouts and hpusings just to hold them together.
