Hi,
I'm looking at having some wheels built. This is a medium-term project so I won't be buying the parts just yet, but would appreciate advice on the hubs. Hope have been recommended to me by @Yellow Saddle and others, so just wondered if people riding Hopes could let me have their thoughts, esp on reliability and bearing life.
Also, as I'll be building disc-brake wheels, would I be best looking at these?

The Hope website and CR lists them as MTB hubs but then all the disc-brake road/CX wheel build options on the Hope site come specced with Pro4s...bit confusing?
Cheers,
Andy
