This is a rather original wheel, and not just because of the choice of this upmarket hub.
Everything has been thought to offer the strongest 451mm wheel, for every day use and long distance : 36 spokes crossed by 3, brass nipels, and a large rim. The Sun Ringle CR-18 is probably the most robust in 451mm, with its square profile double wall, eyelets and its large braking surface. Nothing to say, the finish is also there.
The hub? Just the best. It is ideal for small wheels thanks to its small size. The fluidity is better than high-end Shimano hub but it is also 3 times more expensive, it makes you think about it!
