Wanted - dynamo hub

My sp dynohub has just given up the ghost, so I'm on the look out for a new one. After either another sp, so I can reuse the spokes (assuming hub shells have same dimensions) or a shimano.. Needs to be 3w ideally, 32h, disc brake compatible (pref 6 bolt, but could go centrelock) and preferably qr, but would consider 12 or 15mm thru axle. Anyone got anything spare that fits the bill?

I've got a brand new black Exposure one. 32 hole, 12mm if any interest?

I've got a 36 hole disc, SP, in black collecting dust.
Just donate something to the bear.

Thanks very much for all the replies folks. Taylor, that's a very generous offer, but I'd need to get a new rim and spokes, so it might end up costing a bit more than I'd hoped to spend. Hux, that's a great spot and looks like the one to go for - Robbie, I'm assuming you'd want more for your hub than the 65 quid sjs are asking?

It talks of cartridge bearings, I wonder if they means they're user serviceable?

Not if its a rebranded sp - that's the issue with them. Mine lasted about 10k miles and now the bearings have had it. Apparently you need to strip the hub down and post it to Taiwan to have new bearings fitted. I won't be availing myself of that particular service.

It would be more that £65
I have had a check and the cheapest I can find that one is £170 new. Can you find it cheaper?

If this is still available, I'd be interested?

No, but the exposure are rebranded sp hubs, so the same as the jtek one (albeit qr not 12mm) that hux found for 65.
