For Sale: Hed 3 Front Clincher 700C- £250

Anyone know if these wheels can be converted to track nuts?

I seem to recall reading that they can be, but that might have been Corima...

i want to look cooler than cool than cool.

That's going to take a lot more than £350 and a carbon wheel I'm afraid.

you can kiss my ass old man.

I'd probably put my back out having to stoop so low.

i didn't think you had a back?

(as in it got replced by a steam pulley system in the 19th century.... Fred Dibnah style)

Not sure I'm feeling the HED, opinions please?

It's been great in terms of side winds but I am being something of a tart aesthetically.

I think you should bin it or give it to me. It would look much better on mine.

don't see how it will fit with the penguin books colour scheme. Maybe if you went for all black stealth bike

paint frame in black, then change rear rim to something deeper and black, tape, saddle and cranks to black and it will be AMAZING

Rik you have hit the nail on the head- I've steadily been changing parts in the opposite way to that which you suggest.

The only things on the bike which were there when I bought it are the bars and stem.

i.e. I have changed the black rear wheel/spokes/hub to silver, the carbon cranks to silver...

I think I'll get a CXP30 for the front and also flog the seat post and get an alloy one.

it looks good, but the back wheel looks stupid with such a nice front wheel
also what are brakes like on HED's? I spose if you use carbon brake pads etc. they r ok?

I actually prefer the rear wheel to the front currently- rear is a Dura-Ace High Flange to NOS CXP30 with Sapim double butted spokes.

If you look closely you will see that the HED has an alloy braking surface- normal brake pads.

oh cool
yeah, still though its not carbon :)
but yh the bike would look better if the frame was black
even though i do like the fuji colour scheme

It would look and perform far better on this..

I'll give you £20 for it.

As Mattty alluded to it's not staying these colours for long- will be orange and off-white soon.

Hippy- £20 is a little low, £250 and you have a deal.

£25 it is then.

To be fair you have to bargain with Flickwg- I have the wheel to evaluate it.

On his behalf (and because it is what I was going to pay) I say £250.

Consider that to be a bargain as it cost me £4.70 to go and get it, so I could give it to someone centrally if they had paid Flickwg.

Fuck it, I might stick it on the road bike just to see what it looks like.

I'm sure it would be wonderful to shave 30 seconds from my commute but I'm not paying that much to do it. My TT frame is still in the box :( I've not even thought about building that up. Meh^1000

Just looks wrong not on a TT bike.

That's the conclusion that I had arrived at.

Annoying- I have seen them look awesome on some bikes, just not mine it would seem.

Also Hippy you have a TT bike- you wan'?

That P-X up there is mine.

I know- it's on your bed spread in the photo.

What I meant was "you have a TT frame, therefore would you like this wheel?"
