Right, I've got a secondhand pike uturn on its way to me, but I'm going to need a wheel to fit it as mine are 9mm QR.

I have a mavic xm321 hub lying about, so was going to have a bash building one up with that.

Any recommendations on 20mm hubs? I looked at the shimano zee at £35, and the hope pro2 evo at £50. Any opinions on them?

I've got a pro II front hub 32 hole in black, 20mm that I've never bothered lacing. Yours for £30 posted if you want.

Oh, and to answer your original question, Hope hubs are great. Been using them for years and really rate them.

Hope, because you can change it to 15mm or qr as needed later.

+1 for Hope.

I've got hope front and Chris King front.

With most fork manufacturers going 15mm maxle, the hope will be about £15 to change, the CK will be nearer to £80
😯

Not an issue for me yet but it will be in a few years.
