• You can run brakes on unmachined rims but they'll feel awful until the paint wears off and you'll have to clean paint dust off your brakeblocks and forks.

    I don't know if those rims have parallel sides or not, but getting rims designed for brakes would be worth whatever the extra cost is.

  • Just placed an order for a wheelset for my upcoming conversion, decided to splash out a bit more for the Miche hubs (I keep spending a bit more than intended on this conversion and justifying it by thinking "buy cheap buy twice", etc ;) ). Looking forward to it! Just wondering, what's the average turnaround time? As getting them within the next week would be preferable.

  • normally they are pretty quick I had mine in a couple of days. Drop Jim (Varno) an email he will tell you what to expect. wheels are worth a wait though, they are bomb proof for a road use.

  • On the case mate....Should be early next week...Jim.

  • Sounds good thanks, was just wondering as I'm meant to be going away on Wednesday so would ideally have them delivered and on my bike before then, my plans are quite flexible though so I can give or take a day or 2.

  • Got mine today, excellent service and brilliant wheels as ever.

    Anyone know the largest possible tyre you can run on the mach 1 rims?

  • I know it's pickey but if I take black rims, hubs and spokes will I receive black or silver nipples?

  • Yes mate silver nipples.......

  • Hey mate, thanks for the quick delivery (I missed the courier on Thursday so didn't pick them up til this morning, my fault not yours though!) Wheels are looking sweet, looking forward to later once I've had the chance to ride them.

  • Another happy customer then....Great stuff.

  • Bargain going spare...£60 posted.

  • ^Gone?

  • No mate still here...

  • Hey Varno,

    I've emailed your work email but to no prevail, ordered a wheel set a few days ago and had a phonecall of the courier saying the delivery adress was wrong, can you email me to sort that out asap as I wont be in my uni house (delivery adress) much longer,
