Hi chaps


im on the lookout for a cheap'ish spare Q/R 26" wheel set for my Cube Race, needs to be black and with rear freehub, possibly just a rear would do.

defo not Sun Ringle XMB unless they have a different hub as there prone to the freehub breaking (hence why im looking for a spare set)..

some thing along the lines of Marvic rims shimano hubs etc


cheers

Maybe replace altogether rather than rely on a back up if you think your gonna have on going problems with the cube hub once its repaired? You have 10 speed cassette?


or have a good quality hub fitted to your existing wheel?

Cheers for the replys, think im gonna go down the route of just getting a new hub fitted to the rim, that way i can keep the original wheels with no worries about the freehub failing again. just got to see what it will cost to have the rim rebuilt. i can get a XT hub for about £40 new or lots more for a Hope one :)
