Not available in pink ?


I've still got the rims i built in 1994, Mavic 217s with Dt spokes and a pace carbon front hub and an XTR rear.  No disc fitment though, but hand built wheels give a much better ride

don't think mountain bike wheels are suitable for a 10R matey

so how do they differ from the DT-Swiss 445D ?

I assume 510 gram rims rather than 445 gram  :icon_thumright: a bit heavier and good robust 'all mountain' wheel  :icon_thumright:

these ran really well this morning, feel slightly heavier which is helping to keep the rear on the floor,nobroken spokes today  :headbang: the  hope pro 2 hubs are great,making a good clicking noise free wheeling which worked well with slower riders moving aside when the hear it clicking away  :icon_thumright:
