Since switching to the TA05 plastic version (non hard) I have broken 1 c hub in a race, where as the 418/419 would occur every other race.
Also I have been running my TT02s with the 44mm DCJ. They fit fine, so you don't have to buy the 42mm shafts
Thanks for the comments on the 44mm bones. I confess I never bothered to try the 44mm ones, I built them from new with 42mm ones and they also fit fine lol. And yes the 418 C-hubs are indeed fragile. I alternate between them and the flexi TA05v2 / FF03 ones depending on what I put my hands on first in my spares box. The TA05v2 ones 54031 or FF03 51293 do seem to last better, although I find not crashing really helps too.
