For Sale: Ambrosio Excellight X Dura Ace Wheelset

Hi,

I have the following wheelset for sale:

Ambrosio Excellight laced to Dura Ace 7900 hubs. 28F 32R with ACI spokes.

They are a fantastic training wheel set and have been properly cared for and serviced

Originally built by Derek @ Wheelsmith, new rims were fitted two years ago by Derek and The London Cycle Workshop replaced all the bearings in the hubs and regreased last spring.

Plenty of life left in both the rims and the freehub:

The wheels are supplied with fairly new Hutchinson intensive tyres and the original Dura Ace QRs. The tyres still have a fair amount of the mould flashing left so they will last a while.

I am looking for £175 now £165 Now £150 Collection only from SW9 - I can supply a wheel box if you need it but won't be posting.

Also willing to consider part exchange if you have any of the following:

• Chromed 1" threaded fork with mudguard eyelets

I think I'll back out .. all yours mattyc and looks like perfect for your use : )

Do You know the weight of the wheels?
Are the spokes double butted?
Are the cups and cones all right?

Thanks!

^^Cool, cheers amey, PM'd re: viewing/collection etc!

Amey,

Ignore my pm just now.

Mattyc - pm incoming

Drotos: spoke are double butted, As for weight - using the weightweenies listings I get weights of 715G for the front and 869 for the rear - allow an extra 10% for rim tape and nipples and I think 1700-1750g for the total wheelset is conservative. As for the cups and cones - I haven't serviced the hubs myself but when the LBS serviced them they raised no issues. Certainly from a visual inspection they are lovely and smooth.

Any chance these are still available?

Jonny, you have pm.
