@igor now that the DT/Hugi patents are expired and there’s a bunch of options from Asian factories, pls order Star Ratchet hubs in polished silver?
atmo it would be an even bigger killer than polished silver crankarms that use SRAM standard spiders/rings

hey I might be interested in the DT campy body, for some reason it doesn’t look they make them in-house, or they at least don’t sell them on the website or something.
still deciding on that vs onyx though so not totally sure

My unobtanium hub has arrived from the UK! It’s real and it’s beautiful!

Is that the UR-700? One of my two dynamos is the UR-700.

I’m not sure. I’d have to check.
It is the one and only silver, 36h, 15mm thru axle dynamo hub I could find on the entire internet. I was about 60% sure it wasn’t real and would never show up but here it is!
Edit: it’s labeled DH-UR708-3D

I’ve got the UR-700 which is just the 12mm version. It’s been great so far, I’ve also got an SP dynamo on another bike. Both powering B&M IQ-X and associated tail light.
I think I like the sound from the Shimano more, but that bike also has a white industries hub on the back…
Eyeing a SON for my next build just to try it and see if I like the taste.

My only other option I found for a hub with these specs was a half bong SON straight from the nude beach and I ain’t about that life.

whoa what an odd duck that thing is! 100x15 was a funny moment. reminds me of the early “progressive” hardtail i had with a 100x20 front hub and quick release rear

Finally got a few minutes to throw together this dyno wheel for Ash’s cargo bike. No tension in it yet.

What’s the comfort zone on spoke length ‘meeting in the middle’? Can’t remember.
TL:DR Front L:273 R:277 / Rear L:274 R:275, what box of spokes would you buy?

I’d buy all four lengths.

Could maybe get away with 274 and 276 but wouldn’t just go with one size.

It’s been such a long time since I’ve built myself a pair of new wheels.
What’s the 3m tape everyone buys on Amazon for tubeless?

I didn’t know we were doing improv warm-up wheels.

This is what I’ve been using. But uhhh… Not actually running tubeless on any of my wheels.
Tapes Master 3/4" X 72 Yds Green Polyester Powder Coating Silicone Adhesive High Temperature Tape [https://a.co/d/0RQIORL](https://a.co/d/0RQIORL)
Also got a my spokes in for a build coming up. My 3rd 650b dynamo wheelset…
