Hi All,
This weekend I scored 2 hubs at the cycle jumble, 1 used HF Campag Tipo 32H front:

And 1 NOS HF Campag Record 28H rear:

I'm currently building my first fixed and I was intending to fit either Miche or System EX when I build up the wheels, primarily because they are sealed and also because I could get both in 32H. I'm going to try building these up as they're just too damn good looking to sit in a box, but how much trouble am I likely to get through the lack of seals? Also, I'm building these up onto CXP33s, does anyone have any experience on whether the 28H rear will be strong enough with a 105KG rider when laced 3 cross?
Cheers.
