touring wheels - hope hubs, SP dynamo, 36h, bullet proof

Built these as wheels for my touring bike for a long trip that didn't happen. Aboslutely bullet proof, hand built by Arup who used to build lots of wheels on here and other great sets for me

Mavic 29er rims, 36 spokes front and back, hope hub rear and sp dynamo at the front.

They've probably done all of 200 miles (apart from the rear hub which has done about 1k but is in excellent condition) and then sat in my cupboard for 2 years.

£230--> £210

Did Arup build them?

yes!

What Hope hub is it? Can it be converted to 142mm x 12mm thru?

I think i did this the other way when I bought it. believe all hope hubs can be

So can you confirm what hub it was originally (model and OLD) and what you've converted it to? I'm trying to get a wheel sorted for a 145mm QR OLN tandem which means I'm bodging spacers and redishing so details would be appreciated.

And also what spokes were used for the build?

its a hope pro 2 converted to 135 QR

spokes i dont remember which ones - but I remember choosing ones specifically to make a decent wheel rather than random non brand ones.

still available and happy to post. £10 off for friday

another £10 off

£210 for wheels that will take you round the world whilst keeping your gps charged and lights on

if you ever decide to split, id take the rear hub

Very interested, will PM shortly

if i find buyers for the rims, spokes and front hub first then I'll let you know...

are the rims tubeless? I assume so but you never know.

I'm not sure they are actually

Mavic XM719, they're not.

thanks.
