Some reviews stated that they did not receive CE Smith parts and were not packaged in a plastic carrying case. I ordered a hub and received genuine CE Smith parts. The hub is easy to assemble and pre-lubricated. There are no complaints at all. I realized I had to replace another hub so I ordered again the next day. I received the CE Smith parts back. I know it's more expensive, but replacing the entire hub is a lot easier than redoing. The way Smith packages the case makes it easy to have spares when you travel.
