Thank you i will look for one, seems older KX parts are hard to find, and impossible to find for the 500

i had bad luck with RAD hubs.... Spun bearings in the rear and front hubs! Couldn't believe it... only 3 rides on them... I'm going with Excel / Talon on my AF build for sure...

The DNA wheels look like they should be strong, but, they are made in China and assembled in the us. I have a couple of sets and honestly I wouldn't put them on anything with serious HP, check the spokes often because they come loose often. There are 3 different types of RAD hubs, unforunately the most expensive are the worst, Like Charlie I bought a set used, when I got them the bearings had spun and I think they spun because the spacers had to tight of a tolerance and you'd get enough flex that the spacer would tool block on the outer bearing race causing the bearing to spin
