I am considering ordering a Rohloff wheel from
www.sjscycles.com.
The rim I am considering is Mavic X517, who I have good experience from, as it is my current wheel in my derallier system, and
it stands up good to my abuse.
But I wonder if somebody have comments about the build quality of the wheel? [:I]
Is is builded with high and even spoketension, so it would hold long time?
And what about the spokes, will they take care of correct spoke thickness, not too stiff and unflexible, but not too thin...
I weigth 93kg, bikes hard in rought terrain at my hardtail. (not downhill/jump - mostly fast singletracks and slow/extremly technical track - crawling slowly throught mud/rocks/roots is fun!)
(e.g. I would not be at heavy weigth load touring)
That's why I wants a Rohloff wheel, I have had too many chainsucks/deralliers trouble at my 24gears system.
And 27gears systems are worser![

thanks at advance. [
