Looking on Chain Reaction I see they don't do custom built wheels on Hope Pro 2 Evo 142x12mm hubs (only 135 and 150mm wide hubs). Does anyone know who does custom wheel builds online with the 142's? Ta

135mm and 142mm are interchangeable with spacers/axles I believe, if CRC do the build you want and merlin don't then you've got the option to change them to 142mm afterwards.
FWIW I'd just go with merlin for a build though, probably cheaper and generally good builds.0 -
Sorry - forgot to mention I'm needing 29er wheels - and Merlin DON'T do those on the 142x12mm hub in their Custom Build web page.
Crazy, as you wouldn't have thought it would make any difference - if they stock the hubs, they should be able to build the wheels, even though they're 29" rims and longer spokes???http://www.youtube.com/user/stumpy25lbs
