I had them built up a while ago - they're some NOS road rims built onto old (10yr+) Hope Sport hubs, with Kenda cross tyres!

Good work.

Out of interest, what's the proper name for that type of pedal?

Spookily I'm looking to do something similar with a Bonty Privateer frame that I have. Just trying to find some cheap 29er/700c disc wheels.

700c wheels in 26" frame and fork perhaps? Nice touch...
