Hi interested in the wheel. Is there any damage to the rim? Is the bulge fixable is it a clincher?

Tub needs refitting, as there's a bulge around the valve (or you can cycle after dark and nobody will notice)
Tub not clincher

Thanks Furious. It's a tubular tyre.
The best thing to do is to remove the tub and fit it again, although it can be a pain in the arse to pull it off the tape without damaging it. Or spend £13 on a new Vittoria Rally.
Really, they should be pre-stretched overnight to remove the kins for the tub being folded.
It's a quick job if you use a tape (Tufo, Velox).There's no damage to the rim - it's very nice. Hubs are still shine and without scratches, which is the plague for the QRs if you swap wheels often.

What happened to the back one, might be interested as a pair?

Never had one. I only needed the front.
But I remember, that Harry.Major mentioned, that they stock quite few of them, but usually the have Mavic freewheel hub. I'd get in touch with him about the rear one.

Gone for now.
For sale Mavic Cosmic - silver (kinda titanium tint) deep section wheel with QR Mavic hub and Vittoria tub.
Bought after Christmas from Pajamas as a replacement for my Pinarello, but I haven't used it since I got the Shamals.
The wheel is lovely - true and the hub runs smoothly. Tub needs refitting, as there's a bulge around the valve (or you can cycle after dark and nobody will notice)
£60 - prefered pick up from the SE drinks
£65 if you want it delivered in London or to any forum drinks (within reason)

I'm not really desperate to get rid off it, but I'm running out of space. It means no silly offers.
