never knew legs on rocks were so short.ps the wheels look good .....dx hubs always were a good looking set ..

totally agree with you, something just right about the dx hubs- very well made, my pair are still running smooth circa 1992.

CD finish on Mavic rims always was (still is) the nicest finish. And as above how I wish Shimano still polished all their hubs like they used to instead of the 'silver paint' look the anodizing now has.

Just pulled out some Exage hubbed wheels (bought 17 years ago) and the finish puts modern XT to shame.
