your_name_here Posted May 11, 2010 Share Is it just me or is YNH writing in some sort of code Er. ja sorry about that. Tried to copy & paste. The short story is this. Chris has organised a build weekend for NEXT weekend at Jonkershoek. 22 and 23 May. I'm going on the Saturday. We need to get the track sorted for the race the following weekend. Cap. I'm probly just gonna ride Tokai this weekend cos 3 weekends straight of riding far from home is a bit much.your_name_here2010-05-11 04:04:57 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patches Posted May 14, 2010 Share Hey guys! Need a little advice... I recently bust my rear hub, so am building a new rear wheel. I have a choice between these two options. Option 1 - Saint M815 (150x12 rear hub) 32 Spoke- Spank Spike Rim (white)- DT swiss DB spokes (black) Option 2 - Hope Pro II (150x12 rear hub) 36 spoke (red)- Sun Ringle MTX 31 Welded Rims (white)- DT swiss DB Spokes (black) So yeahm which one would you guys recommend?! Cost is about R300 more on the hope option. Would go Hope on Spank... but no Hope 32 spokes in stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capricorn Posted May 14, 2010 Share either one will do really. The spank rim will of course been very swanky. ?32 spokes weigh less than 36, BUT, overally, the weight advantage is with the Hope setup. Saint hub: 355gSpank spike rim: 650g per rim Hope Pro II hub: 285gSun Ringle MTX 31: 630g per rim Lighter and louder Worth R300 more? that's up to you.

Capricorn Posted May 14, 2010 Share hahah. what do you want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patches Posted May 14, 2010 Share ideally I'd like the Spank on the Hope Hub... But Spanks only come in 32 hole format, whereas there's only stock of 36 hole hopes available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownhillingKing Posted May 15, 2010 Share Patches go for option 2! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capricorn Posted May 15, 2010 Share did that hope hub come available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patches Posted May 17, 2010 Share Patches go for option 2! hahaha! I went for Option 3! - Hope Pro II 150x12 in red (became available again Cap) - Spank Spike Rim in white - DT Swiss DB spokes in black - and a nipple upgrade to prolock type (dunno what that means but recommended for DH. So yeah... as soon as they build em, and volcanic ash clouds settle... I'll be up and running again! Now I just need an equally as awesome front wheel!
