But I like the width and the basic (easily sourced) spokes.
If you ride your bike enough to require an alloy freehub replacement, I'd consider that a good thing

Having Belgium+ rims (laced to King R45s), I wouldn't go back to Ks or Campy/Fulcrum. Their bizzarro parts and lacings are why I left both. My old Zondas are my trainer wheels, still true enough for trainering, but aren't laser true and due to low spoke count are impossible to make laser-true.
