Fixed wheelset for sale

  • I was looking though cycling weekly and there is a shop in the back selling fixed flipflop wheelsets for £99 new
    And I just brought some off ebay yesterday, bugger
    Cant recall the name of the shop so you will have to go hunt for it!

  • pay peanuts, expect monkeys!

  • based on 36h and with a bit of digging:

    open pro - £25 per rim? = £50

    "formula" etc. hubs - pair = let's say £40?

    DT champ spokes & nipples = £24?

    wheelbuild at Sunday workshop or at a class - £10 in beers?

    I'm reckon for £125 you get a very very decent wheelset and have enjoyed yourself too, no monkeying about.

    I've just got to tick off the last stage, comin up next week....!:)

  • At the last weekends Herne Hill jumble you could pick up brand new Open Pros on Miche Primato hubs for £120

    Pretty sure it was Mike who organises the Mid Kent one on 14/6/08 and gave me a flyer, phone 07778 205 four oh four. He had a load of good solid new and used parts for fair prices.

    I think Teenslain has got a few jumblers coming down Sunday for the track day at Herne Hill

    Act like a mug get ripped off

  • act Like A Mug Get Ripped Off

    Wtp?
