• Just picked up a blue 32 hole one from my LBS they are clearing out the workshop and it was a tenner (prob better than any other new £10 rim) but I know want a pair ;) so if anyone has preferably a blue one or if not a red one would do (bike is red and blue) I may be interested depending on the price :)

    ta

    Bill.

  • sell it to me, that'll end your pain :)

  • I saw a pair of those blue, 32 hole go for £3o 0dd on ebay the other week.

    I know this doesn't help, but they are out there..

    somewhere...

  • Yeah LBS is sure they HAD another but no one is sure if they sold it or it went to another branch, they are looking!

    I may have found another but at full RRP and its it would need posting, would you trust a rim to Royal Mail?? not sure I would.

    they would look cool on on my Harry Hall though.

  • yeah, rims ok through the post.

    as long as the seller packs properly.

  • hippo has some built blue wheels, i think they are supposedly for his new bike, so they'll sit unused in the corner for a few years :p

  • I'm in the same boat. I've a lovely Vuelta blue rimmed front wheel but can't find a rear rim to match. Any ideas anyone?

  • for my gazelle build i purchased a 36hole blue anodised open pro from sjs cycles i think
    check out their website or give em a call they had quite a few knocking around.

  • SJS have none neither to roman, feck!

    I have been offered a freeby second hand open pro so I may just strip what is on it and play with translucent candy blue or red paint and see if I can make it look something like.

    Just need some 32 hole hubs now (new thread ;) )

  • dogsballs hippo has some built blue wheels, i think they are supposedly for his new bike, so they'll sit unused in the corner for a few years :p

    Hate.. you... so... much...

    :P

    I do have a wheelset with blue open pros. The plan is to fit them to the new commuter, saving the plain Open Pro set I have for Raleigh.
    Record rear and Mavic front hub, bladed radial front. I'm not sure why I'm mentioning this as I don't intend to sell them! :)

  • hippy I'm not sure why I'm mentioning this as I don't intend to sell them! :)

    Because you're a cnut?

  • That'd be it.. that and boredom.. but mainly the cnut thing..

    Anyway, dude wants one rim not two wheels.

  • i got a pair of baby blue anodised open pros on my cannondale they look looooovely
    Not selling them too !
