Based on Hope Pro 5 CL disc hubs laced on to wide and strong DT Swiss GR531 DB disc rims with Sapim D-Light black spokes.
Top quality DT Swiss GR531 rims come with Squorx nipples and PHR washers as perfect idea to distribute force from tensioned spokes more evenly around spoke holes in rim.
Their generous 24mm internal width and 25mm height make perfect rims to fit modern 28mm+ tires (either tube and tire or tubeless - highly recommended).
All selectively chosen components make ideal choice for road gravel set of wheels. .
Really great value wheels ideal as an upgrade to factory wheels.
