For Sale: Fixed /Track Deep Section Wheels

Varno, I'm after a pair of 700c wheels with black rims, black spokes, a black hub, tyres & tubes.
The rear to be fixed/fixed, ideally with 16t and 19t sprockets and having a non-machined braking surface.

Can you do the above on a 40mm rim?
What price can you do delivered?

Also, do you build the wheels yourself? If you do, can I choose the spoke pattern?

I would pm, but I'm a newbie and all that.

OK all wheels come with 18t sprockets as standard. The hubs are fixed and free. I use fixed and free on the track with two fixed hubs.

Yes can do the above with a 40mm rim.

Add £25 for tyres and tubes.

Spoke pattern no problem..most common is three cross on both or three cross on rear and radial front....

There will be more V-Sprint products coming along including frames etc so i will keep you posted..

Sits back and waits for the Mergatron to arrive.

is it me or does this happen too much to police anymore?! we need a button to report threads to an adminstrator for deletion...

Yes mate...the other threads are for different wheels but trying to combine all into one..V

Ill happily delete the others if its causing any issue.
V

its the fact these are advertised on e-bay that is the issue.

^ umm...

1. there is a report button.

2. If you read the OP its pretty clear he's expecting the other threads to be combined, therefore taking up less space. (altho I agree asking for the others to be deleted is more sensible)

3. its a good deal and ppl are always posting wanted ads for well priced fixed wheelsets

4. didn't varno's selling of his wheelsets already get discussed somewhere, and it was decided it was a bit like Hilary Stone, and the benifit to the forum outweighed the harm?

Sorry didn't know you were trying to combine everything!

Certainly dont want to break any rules here fellas...

Any mods please let me know.V

@hugo7

Where is this button you speak of??

I didnt mentioned anything about the duplicate threads, somtimes these things happen.

With regards to 'it was decided..' didnt realise that forum members can change rules based on a couple of users on a thread, ha! go and read the clasifieds terms and conditions, if he wants to sell on here then pull the e-bay ads, simple init'.

Ive got a couple of frames on ebay thats all...

I bought some of varno and think this shouldn't be a probelm since also stated that he would price up for others!

it is an kinda exclusive deal for forum members, plus the transactions go really smooth and fast!

Where is this button you speak of??

underneath each members avatar

Thanks all....all threads merged..V

1. TBH, varno's wheelsets are quite offordable and I do agree with hugo7 that plenty of Wanted ads are placed for wheelsets and thus he is just filling a void in the market and at the same time helping out forum members.

2. As for the eBay rule, the important thing is even if he sells on eBay, correct me if I'm wrong, I dont think he has ever posted a link here, and he seems well stocked and it is unfair if he just rely on the forum to sell his wheels. Furthermore, he is not just hawking a single set of wheels, he has plenty to sell and thus the question of double-selling a single item is also out of the question ;)

3. At times discretion and "substance over form" should be given due consideration before just throwing the book at someone. That said, I feel the rule is in place to prevent one-off sellers or those who are trying to use the forum to gain more bids on the items they are hawking on the bay and not foremost for the benefit of the forum. Thus refering to point 1. varno has been around for quite some time, and as of now, no shoddy dealings have surfaced from those who purchased his wheels and he is indeed helping out this forum fill the gap for wheels :) Fair enough for me as a keeper.

I'm going to make a purchase from Varno sometime soon, so its good to know he has a good reputation.

Even if he is 'breaking the rules' (I don't know if he is), the service he provides is a benefit to the site

Grave robbers back in the day, illegally robbed graves and without them, we wouldn't have hot dogs today.

I like how he (I hate this 'hes here' but im pretending hes not thing - excuse me varno for being so rude) is so polite about the whole matter. Big up to you sir!I appreciate the service you provide.

1. As for the eBay rule, the important thing is even if he sells on eBay, correct me if I'm wrong, I dont think he has ever posted a link here, and he seems well stocked and it is unfair if he just rely on the forum to sell his wheels.
   
   

That's not the rule though is it? The rule is "no posting anything on here that is also available elsewhere".
"Unfair", is having two rules, one for Varno (for example) and one for anyone else who wants to increase their customer exposure by listing on here and ebay.
Feel free to take it up with Velocio. Until I'm told otherwise threads get deleted if the items are listed elsewhere.

Cheers mate...

Thing is, im cool to supply this site with wheels etc at the price and offer a good service to buyers that want them. I cant find out what rules have been broken, none of the wheels are advertised on ebay. I asked for one of the guys on here to merge the thread as it was looking like there was double trading, but actually it was for different products.
Ive supplied a lot of guys on here with, so far, 100% satisfaction...See "Good Traders" , so happy days. Keep the orders coming and i will keep supplying as best i can.
I will happily take PMs from people that want to discuss or advise accordingly.

was wondering if you are still doing them?

Considering getting as follows :

Back wheel: Black 40mm rim, black spokes, black hub (120mm spacing, with fixed on one side, free on the other) with the silver sprocket

and for the front wheel

Front: Black 40mm rim, black spokes (preferably radial spokes), black hub

Would that all be ok?

I've just put an order in, straight forward. Looking forward to my new wheels.

In terms of the debate above I see both sides of the argument. I understand wanting to keep things exclusive to the forum. In this case without the issue of the item being snatched out from under the forum is it less of a concern?

I can't see what varno is donating but if he is conducting regular business on the forum, making reasonable donations to the running of the forum, as well as filling the niche requirement for affordable wheels. Surely it is of benefit to the forum as a whole.

Also with the positive feedback he has received thus far, it seems he is not out to take advantage. He also seems to have been open about his dealings.

I know rules are rules, but are there times perhaps when rules need to be considered objectively?

just my 2 cent.

99pLyall No problem...

Malaysian, order sorted.

Got to add another voice to the pro-Varno choir - we need a wheelbuilder on LFGSS who can consistently deliver builds at a decent price. I'm going to order a set as soon as I get paid.

^^^ I second the above. Just got my wheelset from Varno. Great wheels, great price, fast delivery, totally customised to my spec and NOT FOR SALE ON EBAY.

Can't see any issue with this at all.
