NEW: Complete wheels from Hope
Own hubs and rims: Hope presents its own complete wheels for the first time at the BIKE Festival Riva.
The detail-loving Brits used to fit their hubs in NoTubes rims. From now on, Hope produces its own rims and can therefore offer its own wheelsets. Only the spokes do not come from the island, but from Sapim. Hope is now offering two models to order: a Cross Country and an Enduro version. Here are the hard facts about the Hope wheels built in Barnoldswick:
