I’ve got a pair of Dunlop 27 x 1-1/4” rims with 32/40 holes I want to shift. They’re in ok/useable condition. I know how difficult these can be to move on and they’re impossible to find when you want them, but they’re too good to bin. Should I stick them on eBay and wait it out or would it be easier to move them on if I build them into wheels?
I have one Resilion rear hub. I’d need to get a matching front for circa £25 (one on eBay) and some spokes for £15-20.
No point building if not for yourself. Resilion hubs are not most desirable, plus if rims are not in VGC you'll never recoup the outlay. Same here, have some nice 27 1 1/4 Fiamme/Weinmann rims on Maillard/Racelite hubs and I think I'd be lucky to get £40 for those these days....
