These are the training wheels off of my old Roberts Track frame, which is now residing in Austria with its new owner.
I bought these second hand 3 years ago and they have been excellent wheels for training and track leagues.
The front is Suntour Superb Pro Custom with DT Aero spokes (28) radially laced to a Mavic CX18 rim.
The hub has been relaced at some point in the past and you can see some spoke pull marks, but no cracks or warping on the flanges. There was an issues with one spoke loosening off but @hillbilly sorted this and serviced both wheels in April this year.
Rear wheel is also a Suntour Superb pro custom hub, all threads are in great condition and it's laced (28 unknown spokes) to a Mavic GL330 rim.
Both wheels have season old Pista Cx's (tubs) fitted (glued, again by @hillbilly )
Both wheels run true and the hubs spin absolutely beautifully. The front is as smooth as a newt and the rear is not far off it. Truth be told I always thought the rear ran slightly rough, but it always spun exceptionally well and it has been serviced several times, so I suppose it's just how it is!
