   Any recommendations?

   They don't seem to come up secondhand very often so looking to buy new

   Probably looking at Pro2 hubs so I can go bolt-thru in future, not fussed about tubeless rims

   Hope Hoops in 29er flavour (Stan's) here for about £300. I like tubeless, some don't. To be fair it can be a bit of a faff if you're a serial tyre swapper.

   Merlin are doing them now, better quality build and cheaper price compared to the ones I got from JRA in the past.

    I have a set of ex-demo american classic all mountains white/black here... they need a new home. RRP is around £500, there are a few marks but function perfectly... £279 inc UK delivery.

    01360 312 709. Big Al can source and build you pretty much anything you want and at a good price. I just picked up XTR Centre Locks on TN719 Mavic rims. Strong and not too heavy. Good days!

    I'm building a budget set on Deore hubs, cost for front less than 50 quid so far. Still looking for decent rear hub.
    Choose your favourite hubs and buy some Notubes rims to match and get your local wheelbuilder to sort them.
