Now that I finally have my new rear wheel built up, it’s time to sell the old one. Specs are as follows:

  • Hub – Hope XC Rear 32hole Blue w. Titanium Freehub body. Dated 07/2002. Complete new bearing kit fitted 11/2005. Freehub serviced 02/2005.
  • Rim – Mavic X517 black. New 05/2005. Never been used with rim brakes.
  • Spokes – DT Swiss Competition 2.0/1.8mm dia. Silver. New 05/2005.
  • Nipples – DT Swiss alloy. Anodised Blue. New 05/2005.

I’ve owned this hub since new, and it has had 2 rims including this one on it in that time. As far as the alloy nipples go, they look ace with the hub, and I haven’t had the seizing/breaking problems that seems to be the urban-legend these days. Wheel is true to +/- 1mm. Hub bearings have no play in them, and freehub is freshly packed with grease. I replaced a few bent spokes while I was servicing the freehub, so the wheel is in pretty good condition.

NOW SOLD. Thanks for looking.
