• Interesting... Hope hubs could work, but I do prefer quieter hubs, hence leaning to DT 350 over the newer EXP.

    I was looking at the DT rims, but it peeves me that they double the price for a welded rim. I can't see any other difference than that to the G540.

  • I have both and prefer the DT hubs (although the buzz from the Hope is good on trails - people are already out of the way by the time I pop out around the corner).

    When I get flush with cash I'll build a new rear wheel with a 350 hub (hopefully it's the same disc rotor width as the 240) and then I'll sell the Hope 650B wheelset on.

    You see, that doesn't happen with me! Either my Hope are quieter/more greased or people are deaf around the trails I ride!
