Well the 28h are hard to find but that just seems silly when you could get something like alchemy hubs if you need silver...
I would have thought 300ish (which still seems crazy to me)

I should get with the times. Old Potatoe did a build for me a few months ago with 28h NOS Record hubs incl skewers and Velocity Aeroheads. Seems the hubs are worth more unlaced.

I have two sets of 32/28 Record hubs......

I should sell them and get some Alchemy hubs. Seriously.

I was not trying to imply Alchemy hubs are all that or Campy hubs arent great. I have a number of campy hubs that I still use and still roll smooth.

The silver campy hubs seem to have shot up in price mostly because they are silver and while they are very very nice hubs, I would have a hard time paying $550 and change for a used set. If someone really wanted to build a wheelset and needed silver hubs (which I totally get) there seem to be a ton of options before dropping that coin on a used set. Now NOS, I might understand

570.00 inc. shipping. That's $10.18 per hole.

Lucky they weren't 36s.

Just for fun!!!

Both sets are in regular usage. They sure are purdy! I bought them when Campagnolo still produced them and I ordered 2 sets of 32/28 from Excel Sports about 10+ years ago.
