FS : My Phil Wood / Deep V track wheels.

Ok, i was going to ebay my wheels but i thought i'd post them on here instead in a Roberto stylee.

Hubs: 32H Phil woods, rear is Fixed/free. Comes with bolts/washers (as not seen on pix)

Spokes: DT Swiss straight-gauge, stainless nipples. Laced radially on the front as seen...

Wheels: Silver deep v's, non machined

Comes with a 16t 1/8" sprocket and phil reverse lockring. The rear rims anodising is kind of weird in one or 2 places, its not evident and hard to picture.

Any takers?

How much are you looking for?

how come your selling them man??

are they from your bareknuckle ? how will you get around without wheels ? it will make highgate much more difficult

Why are you selling them? Don't tell us you gonna have a geared bike!!! :(

i've got some hybrid wheels i'm gonna have to use for the time being..conversion hub :(. About the wheels, i dunno how much to sell them for so i guess i'll take the best offer? If i get a decent offer you can have them today.

£25.................. 8^)

Hi mate, nice wheels. You say they are non-machined, are they the hi-polished deep v? do you think i could use a brake? How much are you looking to sell them for?
Cheers.

They're anodized, so they should be fine with a brake. But they won't stop as well as a machined rim.

With painted rims the braking will be terrible if they're not machined, plus the paintwork will come off.

(That's what Brick Lane Bikes told me anyway)

ride brakeless

yes, brakeless

Brakeless is for wimps who don't wanna skid their front wheel..

I have used a front brake on the rim for a while and it has naturally machined it. It works fine for me, machined rim will be better for braking but remember these are track rims.

So how much? £200?

hippy Brakeless is for wimps who don't wanna skid their front wheel..

Exactly. If you're even more hardcore like me you ride with a hydraulic disc brake in the rain with 700x23c wheels on a singlespeed.

Front wheel skids wheeeeey.

'ardcore!! ;)

I was thinking about equipping the fixed gear i'm building with a hydraulic disc brake in the front for sheer over-the-topness. instead i think i'll just use my bare left hand as a caliper.

Make sure you use aero spokes for maximum finger-chopping 'ardcoreness!

better plan on getting some pitlocks if anyone's got the money to get these wheels!

the red crow flies at dawn etc.etc.

These wheels are now SOLD, to the gentlemen with the top hat in the back row.

Thanks for your interest.
