Need a 29er (20mm hub) front for Friday, needs to come with 20mm adaptor to cut down on faffage/cost.

Who do you recommend?

No mate, it’s one of the lads who’s coming to Scotland this weekend.

The LBS has let him down so i’ve talked him into getting a Hope hoop…

zilog – did it come with 20m adaptor chucked in?

18 bikes for mine, highly recommended.

winstanleys or Twelve50 bikes

IIRC correctly XC wheels eg crests/arch always come with 15mm adapter, DH wheels like Flows come with 20mm

I bought mine from Progressive Bikes, give them a call, I’m sure they would be able to help you out.

Where are you? My LBS has them in stock in 26 and 29 flavour.

West Yorkshire but travelling up to Glentress/Innerleithen area Saturday up the A1…

18 Bikes, of course!

Moonglu more choice

Moonglu ftw. Can probably build them before then if needed, though they may have a set in stock, and I specced mine with 20mm adaptors. Matt H at 18 Bikes is known for building very good wheels too, so they’d be worth a shout.

18 bikes’ website only show wheelsets…

+ one for moodglu

i bought mine 2 1/2 years ago hope pro 2 evo hubs and arch rims, was 15 1/2 stone when i bought them and i have not ONCE put a spoke key on them and there still straight :D:D

very happy as they were the cheapest place aswell

progressive bikes – will use them again and again.

Another vote for Moonglu here.

They build them in house to Hope Hoops spec rather than buying them pre-built from Hope. I bought a Hope Pro2/Arch wheelset from them in October 2010 which is still perfectly tensioned and straight after regular use.

only ’cause I’ve not got round to working out how to list everything clearly without it all being really confusing. info@18bikes.co.uk we can sort out individual wheels (closed Wednesdays though, bear that in mind!)

I’ve also got a DT350 (20mm) on Arch EX 29 front wheel that we could let go for a deal – misunderstanding from Madison as to it being swappable to a 15mm.

Si

Progressive bikes here too, think I remember si gave up selling them though!

Cheers all. Si – speaking to my mate shortly so will pass your message on…

It’s either gonna be moonglu or progressive by the looks…

Just out of interest, is there much difference between the Hope machine built hoops and a wheel set put together by hand?
