Wheels are Important.
Just finished building them. Through the valve hole, yes, Phil Wood hubs on Velocity Arrowheat 26 inch. rims with DT swiss double butted spokes. 36 on the front wheel and 40 on the rear.
Durability and field service ability are two features I wanted to build into the wheels.
I intend to ride on Schwalbe Marathon tyres. With tubes
The wheels are trued and tuned. It took me several attempts to lace the rear wheel. But I got it with Taylor’s help.
