Hi

Anyone got any experience of either Hope road hubs built into open pros with good quality spokes or their pre-built road wheels ?

Fancy something a bit different to the usual suspects.
Currently on Easton Ascent 2.
Or would you just go for Record, Open Pros and good spokes ?

Costs and recommendations appreciated.

And do the Hopes come in Campag fitting ?

Thanks

    my only comment will be do you know how the Hopes sound? No silent freewheeling.

    I spoke to them at the bike show and thay said they didn't do campag compatible hubs at the moment, but were planning to later this year. Apparently they can't just stick a campag splined body on because they havent the clearence, so they need completely different internal workings
