• i just bought some 700c wheels, almost brand new, smooth as you like, but only about 18-19mm across the rim, too thin for me ...looking to swap for a pair of 700c race/road wheels, more like 23mm across... but in other respects similar, or looking to sell these for a reasonable price to someone who wants them and then go about finding a new pair on my own...

    My set are, 36 hole wheels, built with Rigida score rims, stainless spokes and Maillard QR hubs, the rear being screw fit, includes rim tapes. Nothing too fancy but they are in good condition having been used for about 100 miles and then stored. so i'm looking for pair of 700c, 32/36 spokes, a screw on rear hub, rim width of around 23mm, and in a decent condition... is that too much to ask for...?

    if you've got some comparitivley nicer wheels, let me know and we could arrange some kind of swap plus backshish deal... and if you just want to buy them...make me an offer... and indeed if you have some wheels that meet my description let me know

    I'm in london (if you want to swap, otherwise i guess i could sort out postage to wherever (and indeed pay for it from wherever)

    thanks for looking

  • I run 700x23 on my ridgida score rear rim no probs.

  • Just swap the tyres out for 23mm?

  • what tyre size you looking to put on? if 19mm is your rim internal width you can put up to at least a 38 tyre. tyres SHOULD be wider than the rim

  • thanks, will give it a go...

    this would certainly save me foraging around for new wheels...

  • if not, then i'll probably take them off you

  • i'll let you know how i go...
