For Sale: 50mm carbon tubular wheels

Posted on
  • These were purchased as a complete wheelset from Farsports (www.Farsports.cn) and have ~500 miles on them from new.

    They have only ever been used with Reynolds Cryo Blue pads, with which the braking has been excellent.

    Specification:

    • Superlight 50mm rims, 20 front and 24 rear
    • Sapim CX-Ray spokes (black)
    • Hubsmith superlight hubs with ceramic bearings
    • Shimano/SRAM freehub body



    1,112g on my scales- very light, especially for a 50mm deep wheelset.

    Currently they have Continental Competitions glued on, but I'll probably keep those unless the buyer really wants them.

    £399, collection in Forest Hill.

  • Forgot to say- these have a standard freehub body (unlike the other wheels I am selling) so will take 9 speed, or a 10 speed cassette with the standard spacer.

  • selling these already? You buying Zipps?

  • Going deeper.

  • ... in debt !

  • Well, I'm not going to buy any new wheels until I've sold these.

    And the DA to OpenPro CD's.

    Possibly also a turbo trainer, and some other bits and bobs.

  • Crackin' price that!

  • Agreed. Would have had these had I not just brought a new pair of carbon wheels

  • nice price! bump

  • Can these be converted to clinchers?

  • no

  • With a powerful enough glue, anything is possible.

    Advisable, maybe not.

  • Possible to change freehub to fit campag?

  • I'm pretty sure you can, most of the Chosen/Novatec/Taiwanese hubs are designed to be able to swap between freehubs easily.

    I can email Farsports for you and enquire, and/or you could email these guys: http://bikedomeworks.tw/index.html

    And ask, I am sure they'd be able to get you one, and more than likely for an extremely good price, and very fast.

  • I've just emailed them, I'll post the response.

  • do you post the wheels or only for collection?

  • I'd far prefer that the buyer came and had a look at them, then took them away to be honest.

    If they don't sell locally then I'll post them out.

  • well, that journey will cost me a lot more than the wheels :P
    but i understand you Dammit

  • dibs and pm sent :)
