These wheels are once again proof that a good quality hub, when looked after, will last a long, long time.  Mark asked me to rebuild his Shimano hubs from his touring bike and we selected the Salsa Delgado as the ideal rim for 35mm tyres and bumpy road.

The spokes are double-butted DT Swiss Competition and are laced with brass nipples.

All-in-all these are a classic pair of wheels which will last another couple of hundred thousand km.
