Kona uses these hubs on their lower model 2006 bikes the Hula and Lana'i. So it should be good!!

My wheelset is off a giant reign which uses formula hubs. Lighter than my old Deores and as quiet. Looks a lot better and is shiny so its easier to clean. It has been through a lot of wet and dry XC duties with little... ok very little drops and jumps. Lots of mileage though. I think formula hubs are a great value option.

Yeah I'm using formula hubs for a year and a half. It has traveled 3ooo kms ++ according to my cat eye odometer. The great thing about them was that I was able to replace the bearing cap on the hub (like the BMX's hubs) unlike the newer hubs like the new shimano cassette hubs that you'll have to throw away when the bearings eat the housing (please correct me if I'm wrong).

I had the WTB Speed Disc wheelset which came with Formula hubs. I think OEMs may be of lower quality, at least the one I got. In just a couple of months freehub was already loose. have had to re-pack it several times already. finally just gave up and replaced it with Da Bomb
