  • I've got some Araya rims from the 90's NOS still wrapped for sale. £30 each.

    I have 4 available at the moment and I can get a few more sets if any one else is interested. Unfortunately I wont have them in the UK until after 19th August [I'm in China]. I need some advance notice in order to get extras. Collection from Hackney Wick only, sorry, no postage.

    EDIT:

    I should just make clear that the rims are not in the UK until after the 19th Aug. I have 4 rims here [in china] and can get a few more pairs if necessary.

    Sorry, it's not really practical for me to post these.

  • Oh sorry !
    Ok ! I understand !!!
    Have a nice day !

  • Nuknow -1pair please.
    Thanks.
    BTW: 30 each, the set or each rim? please.
    (either way, I'll get a pair)

  • Way to strike a deal man.

    Skullymeister, my RS-430 are the Bomb! (±400gr), just like these.
    Some of the best rims I've had*.
    £60 is worth the deal/wait ; )

  • I know, I was just taking the P. I'm a touch drunk.

    I actually quite fancy these, basically a touring rim by the looks of it, right?

  • All-around beauties:

    From the 1990 Araya Catalog:
    Specially designed for use of hybrid/cross bicycles with cantilever brakes, fitted with
    700x35c or 38c tires. Aslo suitable for narrow raod bike tires like 700x20c ~ 25c.

  • Aha yes, concave sidewall, designed for Cantis. Cool.

  • I saw a pair going for 90 hipster nuggets a couple of months ago, on epay.
    Madness

  • Cos they say 'Araya' innit.

  • Damn rite.

  • £30 each rim, so £60 a pair. They are in perfect condition it looks like the paper wrapping has never seen the light of day. To be honest I'm not sure that info on velobase is accurate I cant see these taking more than 28c, possibly 32c, they have a 14.5mm inner width.

    So, nuknow, I'll put a set by for you, I'll p.m you closer to the date.

  • Thanks Sweatpee,
    (lovely name^ : D),

    I'll be waiting on those, cheers.

  • dibs for a pair please :)
    cheers

  • hellooo.. i'll take a pair pls!

  • The 4 rims I have are now reserved, and I'll be in touch with those people a week or so before they can collect. I should know today how many more I can get hold of so I'll try and get as many as I can and I'll let those interested know.

    Cheers.

  • I now have 2 more of these rims to offer. PM's sent to those who contacted me. Thanks for the interest.

  • Dibs on a single one please. :)

  • Ok, I just checked all my pm's and it seems there is still a pair of these up for grabs.

    I'm in London on the 11th possibly 12th and back again at the end of the month. Really nice rims, I just built some 32h up and they look very nice.

    £60 the pair.

    Cheers.
