[SALE] Selling price advice - Enve tubular wheelset

Posted on
  • Hey,

    I'm going to part with the pair of Enve tubular wheels that are mounted on the bike I recently acquired, only I have no idea what price I can ask for them (selling with Sram Force 11s cassette). I can't take detailed photos atm, but they're in very good condition, with a recent overhaul in the workshop.

    I've found very little information on this model, except for two articles that seem to indicate that it's a fairly high-end 2010s MTB model:

    1. https://www.pinkbike.com/news/Enve-Composites-Releases-Long-Awaited-Carbon-All-Mountain-Wheels-2011.html
    2. https://mbaction.com/product-follow-up-enve-twenty9-xc-wheelset/

    They are mounted on American Classic hubs, reference: https://www.treefortbikes.com/American-Classic-Rear-Disc-Hub-32H-142x12-Thru-Axle

    I'd love to hear your advice. Cheers! 🙏

  • oof that aesthetic made me think that we are living under Obama's presidency for a bit 🥲

  • Given they’re not on CK or DT hubs, are for tubular tyres, and are a 15 year old carbon product in an area that has had a lot of development and market entrants (LightBicycle etc) that can now give you a set of premium wheels with any spec you desire for around the £1k mark, you’re probably looking waaaayyy under £500, probably more toward the £250 side of things, if you’re lucky. As the market at the moment is hopeless, and won’t recover for legacy items like this as it’s being flooded with new tech that’s being desperately sold for peanuts.
    For context, bought a set of Zipp 303 tubulars with DT Swiss 240s hubs, which were phenomenal wheels, for £250ish a few years ago, which I’d put in almost the same bracket, these probably a lesser one if I’m honest given the American Classic hubs…

  • Thanks for your feedback! That's about the range I had in mind, but I wanted confirmation, especially since I have very little information on the model :)

  • might be worth putting in the cyclocross thread

  • ^This^

    Tough XC rims, plenty of spokes and still quite a few CX racers still using tubulars appears to be your best bet.

    At least they appear to be 12mm thru axle which will help.

  • Thanks for your answers guys, it's a lot clearer!
