Well, my aging Cane Creek rear hub is no longer serviceable. After several years of trail riding and not turning a spoke nipple with these wheels I am very pleased! On to newer, better things. Going tubeless with a wheelset built on XT hubs, DT spokes and the WTB I-23 rim. Nice, light, stiff and tubeless. Now for some cooler weather !
New wheelset !

nice. XT hubs are no-brainer reliable. nothing wrong with a traditional wheelset, it should last you a good long time.
tubeless is fun stuff... with the ability of running lower pressures....
ummm... I used to swear by XT back when 8 speed was the hot setup.
I built a set of wheels with XT hubs for myself recently and I was disappointed.
Can you afford to step up to Hope Pro 2?
Much more serviceable and convertible.
Nice choice in rims IMHO.
