So far done over 2000km on this set. Done recently bike packing trip 1400KM. Fully loaded bike weighted about 35-38kG + me about 92kG. Rode a few days in heavy rain. I can say they done the job brilliantly. They 100% straight as day 1, hubs are well sealed, no signs of wear.

Regards

Where did you get your spokes? That's a very good price! Nice to see another person using the Koozer hubs, I've used to 390 and 450 for several wheel builds now and found them excellent.
