First of the CK hubs need to break in. You have to run them about 100 miles before they losen up.

@LeoInterHyenaem looks like someone has a little of sand in his vagina :)

which are better for DH i9 hubs or CK hubs?
-
To the hell with the "sound" (or noise, if you will) - a hub's best properties are its low rolling resistance, its durability and strength, its serviceability. Not a single one of these Chris King, Industry Nine, Hope or Hadley Youtube "videos" shows their respective rolling resistance or relates to their durability. My conviction that children under 20 (as a general rule, with a few exceptions) must not be allowed near Youtube, is empirically reaffirmed.

i have trials bikes with each hub and have to say that i prefer the I-9. when i am on the chris king it feels like a kids toy in comparison even though i know it is a high quality product.

.... The Chris King hub noise is awesome... swarm of angry bees, it's there to remind you to keep pedaling!

Shouldn't the I9's sound "better" (i.e. higher pitched, more mechanical, etc.) since they have more points of engagement? 120 as opposed to what, 108 in the kings?

You're listening to a recording, so it's probably harder to tell the true sound, but yes, the I9's do have a more mechanical sound. I9's are 120pt (3 degrees), Kings 72pt (5 degrees).
