I don't think that effort ever came together. Have to ask @w00dy.Woody never delivered, eh?
Not for me, but that's a great deal.

Saw that, too. That said, for the same price, I'd pick better hubs and a good alum rim instead.Not for me, but that's a great deal.

The build went well. I put them in the stand after the second ride. They were perfect. I had to tap out one of the disc mounts. Nothing major. I am not sure why the customer needed to tighten the rotors up. He is a noted ham Fister.
Boost or non boost? I soon will have a set of non boost for sale.
What size?
Ain't going to fit the Tracer, but thanks.
what spacing is the Tracer?
just wondering, he said non-boost, then lists non-boost spacing, and they don't fit? is that frame 135?
I am guessing boost.
Boost in front, non-boost in back.
I'd just convert or sell the front hub if you're planning on hanging on to the frame longer.
cheap axle/rotor spacer kit fixes that problem.

$30 gets you a conversion axle.
32 hole? i have some bikes that would fit. classic or vespr? hg or xd?
I had them on my xc-ish built Stumpjumper and they have suited me well. But that’s the reason I’m saying I have hubs for sale as many folks have a strong negative opinion of them.
i know for some people they are fine. i am not one of those people. i am 220lbs without gear and ride XC like a downhiller. underneath someone like me they are effectively cheese.
free?
You also have way moar rocks than I have for 6 hours. I’m 6’4” 220 lbs and have the “flow” of a snowplow.

Just saw this thread, so a little late to the party.
Onyx classic in limited edition "Brassy Gold".
32 hole built up with Spank Vibrocore and DT Swiss double butted. Brass nipples.
Built in the spring of 2019. Not had to touch them yet, other than tension touch-up when new and even that was minimal.
I absolutely love the silence, especially with the brain-ache issues. I have seen so much more wildlife now that I am silent than when dragging a nest of angry bees along. I did still back-pedal a few times at first as a warning when meeting foot traffic. That did not work as expected.
Not a big issue anyway as where I usually ride, there is no foot traffic. As for the soft engagement - I noticed it only occasionally the first couple rides when in slow tech. If anything I liked it a bit better as it seemed to soften the pedal impulse helping traction. Aint justification, placebo and confirmation bias grand?
Now it just feels normal.
Next wheel-set? At this point - Yes, without hesitation, even if they are a bit mass challenged.

True. Very true.
The Mavic rims I laced the Onyx hubs to were problematic. Luckily, I kept the King hubs laced up. My friend Verne had them laced up to Stans flow rims. No problems so far.
Silent, working just fine.
