For Sale: Track hubs, Hope gold anodised and 36 hole Mavics

Now that I'm buying the Levels I find I've got a (couple of) spare pair(s) of hubs.

One pairs a new and boxed set of gold anodised Hope high flange track hubs, these are drilled for 18 holes at the front, 28 at the back, drilled for aerospokes. Come with a matching gold anodised lock-ring. I want £145 for these, anyone who watches Roberto's sales on ebay will know I paid somewhat less than this for them, but I got lucky, am not desperate to sell them and think they're probably irreplaceable. £145 is two thirds of what it'd cost to buy a pair of Phil Woods and I think these are of comparable quality.

The second pair's a set of 36 hole low flange Mavics. I picked these up at a cycle jumble in Bruges and though I can't guarantee it, am fairly sure these are NOS and have never been built up into a set of wheels. They're quite light and amazing quality, if only they were drilled for 32 instead of 36 holes they'd be uber desireable. I paid £125 for them and that's what I want for them. They'll come, as pictured, with their original lock-ring.

those mavics look boombproof

ha, you're telling people you paid less for them.

ha, you're telling people you paid less for them.

They're no exactly common, anyone who watches Roberto's auctions is going to know how much I paid for them, so might as well be up front about it. Vast majority of the time I get a real fair deal of off Roberto, just occassionally I've paid him over the odds, this time I got a real steal.

Looking to sell them as, as I'm now going to use the Levels, I haven't got a build in the pipeline to put them on, but I'm not willing to sell them for the bargain price I bought them for, I'd rather hold onto them as, longer term, I'm bound to build a bike they'd suit.

So if anyone really wants them I'm happy to sell and am willing to haggle (a little) over price, but if someone's just looking for a bargain, these I'd rather hold onto. Not trying to rub anyone's nose in it, just being upfront :)

they were for sale for a long time for a reason.

did the previous owner use grit and sand instead of grease with the bearings ?

odd hole drillings unfortunately. hubs are brand new and very nice. the are slotted for aerospokes as well.

True

odd hole drillings unfortunately.... are slotted for aerospokes as well.

Also true and probably why they were for sale for a long time and why maybe no-one will want them here. To be fair I was explicitly clear about the number of drillings and that they're drilled for aerospokes :)

Polybikeuser, are these mavics still available, I'm interested and have PM'd you.
Thanks.

In line with the new classifieds rules, just closing all my old classified threads :)
