Hello
I am looking to get some new wheels for my Pitch. They are most likely to be the new Hope hubs with Stans Flox EX and I am thinking of getting them built up with some descent spokes rather than the cheapest double butted ones.

So any recommendations on good wheel builders and good strong light spokes please?

I've used Merlin several times and nevr been dissapointed and a very long time ago (1995) got some XT 521 SUP wheels from Dave Hinde (shudder) that were very good wheels.

Can you not just get the ready built hope hoops
They use sapim spokes which are good quality

I've got some of the older hope pro 2 am4 wheel set with flows
They have been perfect for years
