This is a rear wheel that I had built around a Paul "Jono" hub (discontinued) that allowed a wheel to be built with a variable spacing.
The wheel is built for the 120mm rear spacing of my SimpleOne.   The Jono is a freewheel hub.
The Paul hub is High Polish w/ the quick release option.  
Rim is Velocity Synergy 700C 32H Silver
Spokes are Wheelsmith DB14 2.0/1.7/2.0 Silver w/ Silver Brass Nipples

I rand this on my SimpleOne with a double up front and a very nice, Suntour "pro-compe" 5-speed freewheel (13-34) which turned my SimpleOne into a SimpleTen.
I had to add a bolt-on derailleur hanger and a clamp-on cable cable stop in order to do it.

This was built by Anthony King @ Longleaf about 5 years ago.  
The wheel has essentially no miles on it.  I fitted it, dialed in the derailleurs, rode it a couple of weekends and, because I was moving from NYC to upstate NY, my SimpleTen sat in a storage unit for a year.
After moving, I returned the SimpleOne to a single speed and have been hanging onto this wheel thinking I would set it up multi-speed again but I have too many multi-speed bikes.  So it's time to pass this on.

Here's a bit of info for Paul on the Jono Hub:

The Suntour freewheel isn't included but is available.
Also, it's currently set up with a tubed Pasela tg 700x37 tire. Not necessarily included but if you want it , let me know.

price: $220 for the wheel
$30 for the 5-speed 13-34 Suntour pro-compe freewheel (very nice condition, clean and lubed)
$235 if you purchase together 

shipping from New York State is additional

I will add that I THINK I have the extra bits from Paul to build this hub into a different size wheel in the future ...those will be included if I have them
I can also include the derailleur hanger and clamp-on cable stops
