So I've just somehow managed to cut my rear brake hose on my SRAM Rival 22 Hydraulic setup and am in need of a new hose. I've never had to do this before but I've heard that braided hose is stronger and possibly gives you a slightly stronger brake while weighing a ton more. It's also quite a bit more expensive than regular tubing, it seems. I courier around London all day and weight does matter and as I said, this is the first time that such a thing has happened so I'm wondering whether its worth the money to buy braided or just to go for a regular hose. Also, apparently Hope and Goodridge make good quality hoses of each type but is there any other brands I should be looking at?

Edit: Regular SRAM hose kit costs about £3 less than Goodbridge so seems like a no brainer.

Alright, I'll go for them then.

Thanks a lot tester, couldn't have done this without you!

This is true and no, the axles don't fit so when I went ahead looking for the conversion kit, I found out that they're exceptionally expensive and that they also don't seem to make one for the 370. Shame really.

Also, how do you feel about this?

32h, rebranded Novatec hubs (I assume because they look rather similar) and Sapim spokes and nipples.

Nevermind

Yeah, I did but I forgot to mention that now budget has changed and I've dropped the budget to a measly £200. Also, I edited my post as 28 is fine too.

Dear Tester,

I failed getting this wheelset in time and it seems that it's difficult to source the X or M Spline 1900 now, even from Germany at a cheap price. Everywhere seems to be sold out. What disc wheelset would you suggest for 28/32? Doesn't have to be light, preferably 6 bolt and thru axle compatibility but if not, I could live without.

Very expensive for now though.

AFAIK It's very unwise to use a cassette that has a bigger range than your derailleur is intended for. Explosions and shit, yo

My disc hub was pretty loud. Not quite Hope but pretty loud

Thanks dude but I've since given up on the hub after realising that it is in fact, 10 speed (I run 11speed). Thanks though

Only needed a new front but had to buy a set and unfortunately since I'm running 11s, the freebody is too short. So selling a 10 speed 32h 700c unbranded disc ready rear wheel. No logos anywhere so no idea on the make but I think it might be Shimano as its loose ball bearing. Spins pretty smoothly and I just repacked the bearings with Phil grease so will spin even smoother once worn in. A few scratches here and there but nothing serious and no dents.
