The irritating issue for me is:
1994
I need a new rear wheel …so … choices
26 inch
135 spacing
plain, double, triple or alpine butting, brass nipples
Shimano freehub
rim 28, 32, 36
9mm QR axle
15-19 internal diameter
3 cross
2022
I need a new wheel … so …
26inch 27.5 or 29
135, 142, 148 or 150 spacing
plain or double butting, alloy or brass nipples
Shimano, SRAM or microspline - 9/10 or 11 or 12 spacing
10 mm bolt or QR, 12mm bolt thru
rim 28, 32, 36
28-36 internal diameter
3 cross
That’s a lot more to grapple with…
luckily with Hope Pro series enabling lots of change in options, we don’t have too many orphaned wheels lying around….
(I have ignored fancy lacings since that’s just a personaL choice rather than a thing forced on us by the manufacturers).
