i'm looking to build a budget but durable wheelset for my road bike.
does anyone have any experience with Velocity freehubs? specifically, the "Standard" or "Lightweight" models - not the "Economy" line.
according to the Velocity website, they're lighter than the Campagnolo Mirage hubs i would otherwise use and they're quite a bit cheaper.
but i can't find any reviews, and none of the local techs or wheelbuilders that i've talked to have even seen a set.
