Those sansin hubs are just awesome. I had some on some mavic gl 330's. The rims were bomb proof and the hubs maintenance proof. I only got rid of them when I stopped riding tubs for few years
I'm having my early 90s Sansin sealed hub rebuilt onto a new rim after I got mullered a week or so ago. 36 hole Mavic MA2, done tens of thousands of miles and still good to go but buckled beyond repair. Seeing if I can find another MA2.
If you think the hubs are worth rebulding on see how much it's going to cost you. if it's £100 more to buy the new wheels, re-use the campag hubs.
Ive got wheels that are a few years old with Campag (front....) hubs from the 60's.
Mavic Open Pro will run a 28 as recommended, you can probably get away with a 32.
H Plus Son Archetypes have a good reputation and plenty run them on 32's or wider as well, lots of threads on LFGSS etc. Confirms this.
Just carefully check the rear hubs under a strong light and magnifying glass for cracks, its not a Campag thing, just an old hub thing!
