Some really hard riders have bent the flanges. The Nimbus hub doesn't
cave cutouts there, so is arguably stonger.
Some say the bent flanges are from poor landings from big drops and
messy pedalgrabs.
I'd still get the KH (lighter and has a wider rim). If you do manage
to bend the flanges someday, you can replace the hub w/ the Nimbus.
Edit: STM has a point. You may end up prefering a different style uni.
If you break parts on your Sun, there are parts that are a bit
stronger, and they're pretty cheap.
But then, if you really get into this you'll have several unis, like
the rest of us.:p

Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere. If you can ride where you
are going within a hour, do it, and if you can do a trick 50-75% of the
time do it along the way.- Bob Burnquist
