Cheers for the info!
I’ve been thinking - I’ve got a pair of Ultegra 6500 hubs laced to Mavic Open Pro SUP rims sat in the shed with very few miles... as I’m on a budget would I be able to swap hubs over for the r45?
Spoke calc says front hubs are near identical - rear spokes are:
R45 - 295.5/294
Ultegra - 297/295.1
Will the 1.5mm difference on the nds cause death and flames if I spend this evening swapping the hubs over? (Then have them tensioned and trued at LBS)
Cheers,
Matt
