Good Price for a solid wheel and hub
I was in need of a new rear wheel with an 11 speed hub for a trainer wheel. I had a set that came off my Synapse that I was not using, but then I rebuilt my wife's bike and put them on hers. So I started looking and I found these which with the coupon, end up being a very nice price. And they had one at the local store.
Love this style of hub and it will last you a long time if you service the bearings every year. I still have some Shimano 600 from the early 90's that are as smooth as new.
Mavic Open Pro \ Ultegra Hub, 32 Spoke Rim brakes. 11 Speed Hub, but will work with 9/10 speed.
Front: Shimano Ultegra HB-6800/Mavic Open Pro Front Wheel
Rear: Shimano Ultegra FH-6800/Mavic Open Pro Rear Wheel
Enjoy your day.

Brian,
Let us know how the Open Pros are doing after several thousand miles 5K+. It would be nice to learn if Mavics OP quality has returned to what it once was.
