• The wheels are brand new. I did have the rear wheel on a bike to try it out so I guess I shouldn't say that theyre brand new. Theyre 32 hole, not 36, made an error in the original listing. I picked up the hubs when I was in Toronto and had them built up here with Open Pro CD rims I bought new in Belfast with DT Swiss spokes.

    The front wheel in the photo is only laced and hasn't and is not finished being built but will be before it is posted. The front wheel is also not displayed with a tire and tube but will include a tube and new Lugano tire.

    The Hubs use nice allen key bolts instead of nuts for securing to the frame. The rear hub is a flip flop for fixed/free.

    I have a couple of Schwalbe Lugano tires (nothing too fancy) and tubes fitted that I'm throwing in as well.

    I still have one of the boxes for the hubs which I can post as well.

    The price for the pair of them is £280 plus 20 for postage.

    cheq or paypal is ok, they will be posted from Belfast, N. Ireland and can be dispatched within 2 working days of payment being cleared.

    I have pretty good ebay feed back if anyone wants to check that.

    I check my email more often than I do this so if you need a quicker reply, I can be emailed at otherwise I will check my LFGSS account at least once a week for any new posts. I don't have my own internet connection so my access to the web is limited.

    I'm selling them because when I was in Toronto I ordered two sets of Paul Hubs with the intention of using one pair and selling the other. At the time I bought them I had never seen them available in the UK and thought they would be of interest to someone and then sometimes thought I might use them on another bike but have decided I should sell them.

    With the sale of them a donation of £10 will be made to LFGSS

  • nice wheel set. I love the paul lock ring. massive.

  • Could you tell me the weight of the front and rear wheels without tyres or tubes please?

    Thank you.

  • Not sure, and I don't have a scale but will try to get pictures of them loaded sometime soon. I'll see if I can get the lend of a scale so I might have that available too.

  • Looking forward to seeing pics..

  • Any news on some pictures?

  • Thanks for the help with instructions on how to load images.

  • Wheel on left is not built, right? Only laced loosely...

  • Yikes, I should have cleaned them before photographing them! They have been sitting in my workshop which is quite dusty. In one of the pictures you'll see there is a free wheel attached. The free wheel is not included. I put it on to try out the wheel and then had it removed. The front wheel still needs to have the spokes tightened which I will do myself before posting them. Something else to think about is when I ordered the rims I requested CD rims but I don't see CD written anywhere on the rim. Anyone know if Mavic Open Pro CD rims don't print the CD on it's label?

  • I've got some pictures of them up now, incase you havent seen them yet.

  • I can only dream of wheels like these.

  • Price has been reduce to 240.00

  • Wheels have been sold. What a journey the hubs on them have made frome California to Toronto and Belfast and now France.

    a long carbon footprint:)

  • a long carbon footprint:)

    it could be argued though that the fact they're being used for cycling(coscycling'sgreen) they cancel out this 'carbon footprint' you speak of!

  • £10 donation was made as promised.
