In Worthing/Brighton, but can post at cost or I am up in London quite a bit.
Wheel - £100
Halo Vapour XC rim, 32h, 29er/700c
Internal width 21mm (I have been using it with Bontrager AW2 32mm tyres, which measure up to 34mm fitted)
handbuilt onto
SP PD-8 dynamo, QR, 6 bolt disc
Rim is currently tubeless taped, with a layer of gorilla tape on top, but happy to remove this if preferred. This wheel has served me faultlessly for 3 years, not even a broken spoke in almost 12,000km.
Cinq5 The Plug III USB charger - £70
Details for this are best found here: https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/dynamos/cinq5-the-plug-iii-hub-dynamo-powered-charging-device/
I've also been running this for 3 years. Off-road it is a bit slow to charge an iphone, but on road or for charging a storage battery it's great. I kept most of the original length of cable by coiling it round the fork leg, there's 90cm from the connector that sits at the top of the steerer to the hub end.
Selling up as I now have a TA set-up and a fork that doesn't accept the Plug.
