Novatec Hubs on Alexrims?

richardjiles

UPDATE: I had originally listed 135mm hubs which was stupid - I have found a new pair of hubs in red.

So someone who isn't me took my bike out while I yelled at him down the street not to and then crashed it later that day... Long story short I need a new set of wheels.... I think im going to go for handbuilt ones with a cheap alexrims adventurer set 32h (so I can replace easily in the future, I dont mind about weight etc) which are sturdy
I was looking at some hubs in red and these ones came in at a nice 100 dollars so I think I might go for them.... What do you think of the combo of 'nice' (are they junk...?)hubs with 32h rims? Does it fit a racing road bike?

So is your rear frame spacing 130mm of 135mm?

I just measured it and its 130mm, of course the hub is 135 lmao... Its an aluminum frame so I take it I should find a 130mm hub? Stretching it sounds dangerous.
Thanks for that epic question btw...
