First order of business: Hubs
Initially planned on Miche Primato Hubs, used by a friend on his Vigorelli build and appealing in their classic chrome finish.
Paired with Silver H+son Archetypes and silver spokes these wheels would be sharp, sleek and sexyyyy.
That all went out of the window when i came across these Surly hubs on the forum.
No, they're not silver and not as sleek as the Primato, but ended up wayayyy cheaper and SEALED BEARINGS are a big hit. Plus they use 5mm hex bolts instead of ugly track nuts, which brings an extra bit of style.
Once fitted, the perfect flush fit between the Surly fork and Surly hub really got me.
