David Marshall Posted November 7, 2014 Share Local prices should retail at under R1000 per rim. Imported and distributed by International Trade. Stock of 29" (25mm) only due in end of November 2014. The last time I ordered 650b were still available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieterJvR Posted November 7, 2014 Share I have a set of WTB KOM laced to Hope hubs - had it since June. Love the wheels, nice and stiff, and light and the tubeless conversion was a breeze. I bought mine directly from International Trade - can't remember exactly what I paid for them but was around R700 a rim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jva Posted November 8, 2014 Share Hi, Dave from Spoke and Spanner built me a wheel with A KOM i23 with Hope pro 2 hub. Running it at the rear and very happy with the result. Doing tubeless conversions very easy. One of the best rims I have ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jva Posted November 8, 2014 Share Hi Francois, I paid R1220, however that was with using my existing Hope hub and we were able to also use my old spokes, just had to shorten them slightly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
