![]() I guess I should have done more research before placing the order. Overall it's kind of just a poor design so I don't think getting a warranty replacement will solve the problem unless they make updates. Easy servicing kind of goes out the window if you have to take the rear wheel off for a trailside repair and your cassette falls in the dirt, your sprags get dirty, or you lose your end caps in my opinion. Apparently the end caps coming off is a common issues because Onyx designed them for "easy servicing" and they are relying on small O-rings as the sole retention feature. I found a forum on a different site with a lot of information about these vesper hubs. I would warranty them if I was you, I had some issues with my Onyx hub a few years ago but your issue sounds completely unsafe, I wouldn't use them at all until you have spoke with Onyx. I'm going to contact NOBL on Monday to see what my options are in terms of fixing the issue or getting a replacement. They seem to be kind of low quality overall which is not what I'd expect considering the high cost. ![]() I'm wondering if anyone else has had similar issues with Onyx hubs? I've never owned hubs that have had this issue before, I literally had to hold the wheel completely vertical to prevent the "lock" rings from sliding off either end when the wheel is off my bike. ![]() After playing around with the assembly I realized that the ring on the other side (Which has a bolt to cinch it down) was also really loose even though the bolt was fully cinched. Initially I thought the cassette lock nut must have come undone but upon further inspection I realized the hub had fallen apart and the only thing holding it together was a little slip fit ring. As I was carrying the wheel I tilted it slightly and watched in horror as my brand new cassette fell from waist height onto the hard pavement. I discovered this the hard way after hand tightening the cassette and carrying the assembly to my car to go get the right cassette tool to torque it down.
