I'm after some new wheels because...well, just because. The current set are 26" Pro2/Flow and I bought them off of here in July 2011 - lasted really well, but there seems to be hairline cracks appearing around the rear spoke holes. Still strong and true. For now.
I want Pro4 non-boost. Tempted by Hope 35W but only 650b which means new tyres - I think 2.4 to 2.5" which are expensive.
Hope enduros come in 26" but narrower than the Mk1 Flows I currently have. Flow Mk3 are inbetween width-wise, but loads more expensive, regardless of size.
There's nothing stopping me going 650b apart from tyre cost - I have a Shorty, DHF, Mary and HR2 across the bikes I have which would be expensive to replace any two of. The Spitfire runs 26" dropouts which will take 650b, and the pike is 650b.
Basically, does anywhere do Pro4/Flow Mk3 (without tyres in 26" or with tyres in 650b) on finance?
You could get a nice pair of Pro 4's built on to the new wide DT Swiss rims at Moonglu, they do finance and had a 10% off code on the website.
WTB i23s are serving me well and come in wider flavours too.

What he said +1. I have a set of pro 4 / DT xm521s on my Solaris, I think they're very good. You don't get the 10% discount if you get them on finance though.
Looking like Merlin can do Pro4/Flow in 26". Not 0% though
Is it a crack to the rim or on the hub flange? I suppose it doesn't matter if you'd just fancy something new was just thinking a rim swap is quite simple
Rim. Hubs fine, especially with the 142x12 steel replacement axle. Was thinking if just new rims but the mk3 erd is bigger and would be£30 min per wheel.
