Thanks. I don't like the feel of generator hubs. I have had them on recumbents in the past (German $on hubs), and in fact just rode a bike equipped with one last week. I can feel the pulsing. They're also heavy. I have a great little headlight (Light & Motion Urban 180) that easily installs and uninstalls on any of my bikes, so I really don't have need of a generator hub. I think these wheels will be OK for me until I get around to building a set out of better components.
