I really like that stem for the ultimate bulk factor it has.Found this little parts review flicking through some old MBUK mags from 1994/95. I did not know they were that pricey BITD…

those are going to look sweet built up. nice finds.A few Christmas presents to ma-self…
Finally some mint Mavic 121 ceramics in 32 hole, arrived from Poland just in time for a xmas day unboxing.
I’ve had the 36 hole versions for nearly 2 years now, but could never find the correct 1995 hubs to match in 36h, the M900 we’re the back up plan. I gave in 6 months ago and bought the correct 32 hole version DTHugi 1995 hubs to widen my chances Of completing the set, if either or came up.
Now just got to find the correct size wheelsmith spokes & nipples

I figure if I can source the spokes and get them built before end of Feb then I’ll of finished before the end of year 5 !!!those are going to look sweet built up. nice finds.

The comparison to the old 36h set with M900 v the new 32h set with the DT-Hugi. Still not sure what to do with the old 36h set now, build on the quiter M900 hubs and keep as spares or let them go.
