Flowta Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 You ordering the Hubs only? My advice: Order the pre-built wheels. What you pay on CRC for a rim + spokes is what you'll be paying your LBS to rebuild your current wheels with the new hubs. Then you can sell your current wheelset for R1000 to make up the difference. I'm considering doing the same. YES' date=' yes...that's what I'm doing....hopes, mavic 819 ust, etc....but which hubs...? should I just go for the standard....pro 2...they only have "black" in the custom wheel build available...[/quote'] The Hope Pro II hubs are convertable, so you could get the custom wheels in 20mm, 15mm, etc. and then buy the extra hub ends http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=10238 http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=18762
Master216 Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 Dont go for the DT Swiss 4.2, rather go for the 4.1, they are not as soft as the 4.2.....CRC doesnt have the 4.1's tho
Borriz Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 I don't see the problem with the 819 Mavics. I've put mine through its paces and not had to worry about truing wheels now for almost 2 years. Had 317, 22 hole Mavics before and trued it every month. I have 2 wheelsets on 819s and happy as a fat kid with cake
XTC OKE Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 If you want to go lighter look at dt4.2 or mavic 717....they are allready 100g lighter What spokes you gonna get?
