Wheels! Costing up hand built vs something like Hunt Masons, came up with these..
Item Price Weight
Pacenti sl25 (24h) £20 450g
pacenti sl25 (28h) £50 450g
Novatec D771SB £72.5 269g
Novatec D772SB 145g
CX-Ray (60 pack) £93 230g
Labour £60
Tape £3
TOTAL £298.5 1544g
Probably missed something but £300 and circa 1.6kg sound appealing vs Hunt Masons for £370.
Are there better value hubs out there? spokes as light as CR ray for less money?
Going 24h/24h front and back would save £35 but not sure if that is enough spokes for the rear? I'm 66kg and will do some bike packer type trips, CX racing and road riding.
