1. What's the best source for SP PD 8 hubs? Alas, PJW does not sell them, AFAICT.

1.bis) Note: I want the nicest SP 26"/28" 32-hole, QR-axle, BLACK, 6-bolt rotor SP hub and from their pretty but ill-constructed website it's hard to tell if this is the PD 8 or if there is some fugitive better version lurking about somewhere on another page. So, question 1(bis): is the PD 8 their best 6-bolt disc hub for 700C wheels?

For that matter, does anyone have a BLACK, 32-hole, 6-bolt QR axle SP dynohub for sale or trade?

2. Does anyone have some good-condition Fleecer Ridge tires for sale or trade? If trade, whatcha lookin' for?

Patrick Moore, who wishes he'd kept his small stash of (360 grams!! For 50 mm!!) Furious Freds instead of selling them.

Oh, and open to considering used but good condition SON 32-hole, QR, disc hubs too.

On (1), I've had good success in purchasing SP hubs from Modern Bike (modernbike.com) and Universal Cycles (universalcycles.com). I know Sinewave cycles also carries SP but I've never shopped with them before.

Many thanks, Chris but I'm looking for a 6-bolt model.

I have a black QR 32h SP 8 dynohub. Light use, no issues. It's centre lock however. Let me know if you are interested.

Could get a Centerlock to 6 bolt adapter. 

Thanks,

Thanks, but the point of the exercise is to match hubs between the 2 wheelsets exactly so that the calipers and rotors require little adjustment. When I tried an adaptor on an earlier second wheelset I had to mess around a great deal with shims, which was a pain.
