  • Yesterday I found by my flats bins an intact pair of rim brake Mavic cosmic ultimate 50mm carbon wheels, seem fairly modern ushaped profile, were these known to be problematic or anything? Tyres hold air, bearings are good, spokes are fine, hubs are ok #savetherimbrake

  • seized spokes/nipples is common with Mavic wheels but if they're real that's a £3k set of wheels so doubt they'd be chucked just for that. Maybe some de-lamination on the brake track? Maybe the previous owner tried to stop in the rain and nearly died.
