Novak Posted December 8, 2009 Share Hi,I just want to know what you guys think of the following wheel set.It will be Hope Pro 2 hubs with DT Swiss 4.2D white rims and DT Swiss competition spokes? It is going to cost about R6000 locally. Are there any other wheel sets that is better value for money? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nimby Posted December 8, 2009 Share Great set of wheels but R6k sounds too much. This is from Chain Reaction Cycles (you'll need to add VAT on to get an all-in price): Hope Pro 2 Disc Front 32h Black 0.00 ZAR DT Swiss XR 4.2d Limited Edition Rim 32h White 26inch 361.64 ZAR DT Swiss Spokes Competition Stainless DB Black 2mm-1.8mm 53.18 ZAR Velox Rim Tape Cloth 17mm 21.27 ZAR Hope Pro 2 Disc Rear 32h Black 0.00 ZAR DT Swiss XR 4.2d Limited Edition Rim 32h White 26inch 361.64 ZAR DT Swiss Spokes Competition Stainless DB Black 2mm-1.8mm 53.18 ZAR Velox Rim Tape Cloth 17mm 21.27 ZAR DT Swiss Nipple Upgrade Alloy Anodized Red - Pair of Wheels (Not UST) 170.08 ZAR Selected Package Price: 3254.58 ZAR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novak Posted December 8, 2009 Share I know it is cheaper,but this is where I support the local market. If you need something in a hurry CRC is 4 days away,not your bike shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splat Posted December 8, 2009 Share Icycling had Shimano XT wheels for R3500.00 not too long ago. I reckon that's worth investigating.https://www.bikehub.co.za/forum_posts.asp?TID=64391&KW= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
