I know that spacers are bad for MX and these new Wheel Hubs from G-Force are probably just as bad. But I race XC 90% of the time and would like to race a little MX sometime. Im not going to buy another axle, I already have a +1 for cross country. You guys think that these extended wheel hubs will be alright for a little bit of motocross action? Im talking maybe a race a month. Then I will take them off for cross country.

They should be good. Brp is using extended hubs on their new ds as well. Definatly a better option for the money over a axle

Yes but their axle is designed to with-stand the extra forces from extended hubs, his axle was not designed that way, though a +1 lonestar will be better off than a stock axle. I would also check with LSR first, because running extended hubs might void the warranty on the axle.
