What's the current 'that's a good deal' on a tough rear wheel options here?

Eldest has destroyed another rear hub through wear & (hard riding) tear. Rim was already dented, spokes are suspect. He may as well buy another rear wheel.

Ideally £200 or so...

I might have a Pr04 on Ex511 if that would suit? I need to thin the collection.. north Glasgow so not a million miles away.

I bought a Hunt Enduro rear in July. It worked out at £220.04 with a first order discount. Its 33 mm internal, but i wanted 32 spokes rather than 28.

Still running nicely.

I’ve got a set of EX 511 Microspline built on XT hubs that are in excellent condition, possibly outside your budget though as I want to sell as a pair. Currently have Racing Ray/Ralph combo on.

I'd go for the Pro 4/EX511 offered above.

Hope hub will be reliable and rebuildable, rim is among the toughest out there.

And they feel good to ride.

DT Swiss E1900 from Whinstanley's. Tougher than Horizon Pro. DT wheel comes with Ratchet freehub, more reliable than pawls.
