I ride a rocky mountain ETSX 4"-5" travel frame and I don;t do anything too gnarly on it… singletrack, trail centres etc… I weigh about 90kg and I want some handbuilt wheels for about £250-300ish the pair.

I was considering some mavic XM719 rims laced to hope pro2 hubs for lightish, general purpose, long life wheels.

Any comments or suggestions?

Hope Hoops on Stans rims- nothing comes close price wise.

I have some Pro2's on 719 rims which have been excellent on both my Soul and Yeti 575, they are pretty light but rock solid.

I'm selling them if you're interested? (I'm moving to a weight weenie carbon hardtail and want wheels to match.)

oooh

I might be interested email me

Will do later, with photos?

yes please
