Hi, I'm trying to rebuild a Gipiemme parade rear wheel as a front wheel, and am wondering what is a good hub to use. I wanted to see if anyone here had experience with these wheels and what would work.
The rear wheel is 20 spokes, but Parade front wheels are 16 so I can't use that hub. I am looking for a 20 spoke hub, that is not too expensive ($100 at the most, and I work at a shop so can get 50-60% off retail).
Weight is not the main issue, just looking for something sturdy and can stand up to some rain/snow).
