These were bought new from wiggle in December 2007.

Great value for a full Mavic UST wheelset. Used (but not excessively) over about 2.5 years.
Good working condition. Ideal if you want to give tubeless (or disc brakes) a try for the first time without splashing out for a new set.
Can be used with standard tyres and tubes of course.
UST tyres I have used inflate and seat first time on these rims with a track pump and stay up!
Standard 6-bolt rotor fittings. QR hubs. Some normal cosmetic surface scratches etc.
Hubs still spin OK but havent been serviced for a while- you may want to service these if you like them running perfectly.
Both wheels have aero spokes that are all still very tight and the cool-looking milled out sliver sections on the rims.
Rims are not perfectly true – they have a very slight wobble if checking by eye but this can be trued up.
Note Some ‘ding’ damage to rear rim as follows and marked on pics- does not appear to affect seating/sealing of tubeless tyres.
A: dent- rim pushed in by about 1mm max over a 20mm arc.
B: Gouge/bash diagonally across rim, approx 4mmx2mmx1.5mm deep
C: Gouge/bash along line of rim, approx 4mmx2mmx1.5mm deep
Included are 2x mavic QRs and 2x genuine Mavic UST valve stems. You will need to get screw-in valve cores to use these but these can be picked up for a couple of quid.
All for the BARGAIN PRICE of £90 including recorded delivery- signature required.
These wheels work fine but because they are used, the longevity or safety cannot be guaranteed.
Payment by bank transfer only please. If you have any dispute or want a refund for any reason you MUST send them back unused at your own cost.
Please email for more info if interested- thanks for looking!
forgot to add that the freehub will come with a spacer ring to suit shimano cassettes- without this they won't tighten up properly- for reasons only known to mavic!
Hope I havent made them sound like they're knackered - they arent at all and work well, I just want to be crystal clear with the condition to avoid any surprises...
