I currently only have 3 open backorders for wheels, I am guessing one of them is yours for an E110 wheel and a xlfd drum front. You can expect your order to ship next week. So sorry about the delays. We placed this PO for the sturmey archer hubs in july of 2020 and just recieved it. Absolutely crazy lead times from the bicycle parts manufacturers.
that’s great to hear. I’ll be expecting them, thanks for the information

Taylor,
Just so you know, Husky has had a reputation of building Worksman grade wheels at attractive prices.
The normal application of a bike coaster hub is for pedal drive and coaster braking. Engine power can be spoke driven from Left side (cheap way) or center hub clamping sprocket drivers. The best one is sold by Sportsman Flyer.

As I mentioned in my email. The Sportsman Flyer sprocket adapter. has served me well. I do not know the creatr of the OP.
Nor do I know his application. One wonders. You have been forthright and honest with me.
Tom

Hey Guys, Taylor Hering with Husky Bicycles here. I've been speaking with Tom regarding this wheel. The hub on these wheels is a Shimano 110 Coaster brake hub. These are the same hub that we have sent with thousands of wheels. Also the same hub that worksman has on their wheels. We have not changed the hub, although we do also offer a KT coaster brake hub. I am not sure how this is "scamming", or poor quality like you have mentioned.
well i got two of your wheels and both the hubs broke so why is that i don't do anything stupid with them and i use one of those new hub sprocket also there has to be something wrong with those wheels if the hub just breaks and not once but twice like i said.

well if something breaks on the same spot not once but twice there must be something of a poor quality somewhere. or did i just get 2 bad wheels just the luck of the draw maybe

The wheel may far exceed standards for human power. However, when people start applying power from gas engines and/or electric motors they find the wheels can't handle it. I personally would never use a coaster brake on a build. For a back wheel double walled rims, 36 hole, 12 gauge spokes minimum, a cross 3 pattern and a cro-molly bolt on axle is a must.

MotoMags- Taylor from Husky Bicycles here. I would be happy to send you complete measurements of our wheels if you are interested.
No thanks, I simply returned my wheels,spokes and nipples because spokes were not 11g nor were the rims 48mm or what ever they were supposed to be. Nevermind the small nibbles..The scam ,your selling or were items that simply were not as described. Then you blocked me and my credit card for pointing out a problem.

I would like to know how you are measuring our spokes. We sell wheels with our 11 ga spokes to hundreds of bicycle shops across the world. We sell them to Fortune 500 companies like Ford, Fastenal, Walmart, Tesla, Hyundai, Harley Davidson, Chevron Phillips, and many others. Never heard of such a complaint other than yours.

again a steel husky rear wheel with coaster break screwed up i have no clue why this keeps happening this is my 2nd wheel that had same problem the pieces of the hub ring just snapped off and the baring broke also. same thing happened before.
How long did each wheel last ( miles est.)before the hub failed?
Has your 30 day warranty expired?

Would you please post pictures of these failed Shamano E110 hubs.
I would like to see where the hub ring split and I would like to see where the bearing broke.

Maybe I'll know why

I'm concerned because Worksman Cycles uses the Shimano E110 on their wheels
