Rear has never been ridden by me, and I've put about 100k on the front.

£120 collected from Bethnal Green, no posting, no delivery. First PM in my inbox gets dibs and then has a week to collect.

how much?

£120

Hello,

I would like to purchase these wheels. I currently have a set, but one of the rear spokes pulled through the rim.

I am in Detroit, Michigan (USA). I know that you indicated you wanted someone to pick them up, however, I'm hoping that you would allow me to pay for shipping. If this is too much of an inconvenience, I understand.

Looking forward to your reply.

Thank you,

So polite!

Hi Brian,

Well I wasn't going to post them but since you asked so nicely I'll see what I can do. I'll look up how much postage is likely to be and get back to you. I would still prefer cash on collection though so in the mean time if someone can meet me next week then I'm afaid they'll have priority.

I just joined this forum and am "in the nursery", so I can't send a PM yet. I have to be 24 hours old and post three (3) times. This is #2.

nice wheels! do you have spare spokes as i've heard they're hard to get hold of?

also - campy or shimano? can it take 10 speed?

cheers

Shimano and yes will take 10 speed, I know them well!

The rear hub was modded when new too, they suffered from "clonking", quiet as the grave since the mod- a long time ago now.......

I did purchase a box of spare front wheel spokes when I bought the wheels. (Actually I bought the wheels used from a shop in England back in 2004.) I don't know where the spokes are right now, but they are packed away in the garage somewhere.

Peter V helped me source some spokes, pretty easy to get hold of, if not exactly cheap!

Thanx Moog,

I appreciate the consideration. Look forward to hearing from you.

Brian

Tenderloin,

Were you able to source some REAR spokes? I'd be interested in securing a set also.

Thanx,

Brian

I have a link to a Dutch website who have spokes in 3 lengths (I think), the link is on my home computer so I'll post it up here when I'm finished at work.

Ed, if you need a cardboard box to send those wheels I have one sat in my bedroom right now, including loads of padding and foam to protect them. Just pm or text me if you want it in the next few days.

I can't see the crab - there is meant to be a crabon these, I believe.

These are sold pending payment to Tenderloin.

Apologies Brian, I hope you source another set or the replacement parts you need. I'll let you know if the deal falls through.

Thanx for trying. If things don't work out, let me know. I'm still interested.

Moog,

Please be so kind as to send me the link for the Dutch website with the spokes.

Thanx,

Not sure if their in stock or not but it was the most promising thing I found when looking.

Moog if there's any chance you could take Sumo up and post em that'd be awesome, if not I'm coming up to London next Saturday... what you reckon?

Hi there Moog, I was just wondering if you ever sold this bike?
I'm actually also looking for a replacement spoke for my front wheel and I was wondering if you by any chance have any left, please let me know.
Many thanks

Sorry I sold these a long time ago, maybe try the link to the Dutch bike shop I posted they might have some for sale.

I tried the link to the dutch bike shop and they had sold out. I managed to source some rear spokes drive and non drive side. If anybody needs some feel free to contact me.

Hi,

 i am really interested in the wheels as i have a set and need news ones.Are they 700cc?
