Campagnolo Scirocco H35 and Fulcrum Quattro.

What's the difference apart from spoke pattern. Hubs look the same, weight's the same, rim looks the same.

    Well, Fulcrum is a spin off of Campagnolo, so that is hardly surprising...

    the price difference is the only thing throwing me as the scirocco's are cheaper

    So the difference seems to be the spoke pattern then :-)
    Yellow is the new Black.

    I went for the sciroccos in the end. In that price band they seem to be a similar weight to the others.

    It used to be a bit of a challenge in the club: who can fit a 23 mm tyre on a Scirocco rim... has the problem been solved?

    No issues with getting the tyres on. GP4000s in 23mm.

    I've removed some of the safety stickers since, never seen soo many stickers on a pair of wheels. Always impressed with Campagnolo and their quality.

    Still awaiting a response from my Hope Hoops that I sent back. Nearly a month down the line now..

    I seem to recall we did have a chat about those, but don't remember where we got to... did you send them back to the retailer?

    Yes we spoke about them, ended up just getting my LBS to look at them when I was in the shop.. Initial build was very poor and had them trued a few times since. Not sure if it has voided the warranty, I definitely don't want the wheels back though. I have asked for a refund from the retailer.

    Something is coming back to mind... we did speak about a rebuild, but you were living in sunny Majorca... does it make any sense or am I daydraming?

    I wish I was living in Majorca.. Must be someone else with another set of Hope's.

    They won't refund you... maybe you get more of the same... if you get the same back, give me a shout, those hubs are a keeper
