The Hope Pro2 is a great mountain bike hub and with more road and cyclocross bikes using disc brakes and 135mm spacing this hub makes great sense for a lot of other applications.

For Hayden I matched 36 hole Pro2 hubs to a pair of Salsa Delgado touring rims which have a rim-brake surface.  One of Hayden’s bikes has discs, the other rim brakes so this way he’s got both bases covered.

Spokes are double-butted DT Swiss Competitions laced three-cross front and rear.  Spoke nipples are DT Swiss brass.

These are not a light pair of wheels but they’re ready for commuting, off-road riding and loaded touring.
