If you look at what’s actually changed ([http://www.trueprecisioncomponents.com/product-relation/mtb-rear-s2/](http://www.trueprecisioncomponents.com/product-relation/mtb-rear-s2/)) we’re talking about the size of the bearings and bearing adjuster over a 15-year period. That’s remarkably little change compared to most other products over that period of time.
At the time of writing this article I would have had zero concerns about buying any generation of Stealth hub.
Since Box bought the brand I’m not certain to what level they are supporting the product so I’d check in that they still do service in house. That’s important if you need to replace the INA Roller Clutch and inner bearing.
Hope that helps.
