• SWAP mavic open pros with zenith ambrosio hubs for pair of good quality 27" wheels

    I need some 27" wheels, preferably with a 120mm rear hub. I have a pair of Mavic Open Pros, built into ambrosia zenith hubs, with stainless spokes, that were donated to me for a project but the projects changed direction and so Im looking to swap them for a pair of 27" wheels.

    The Mavic Open Pro rims are quite worn on the braking surface, the rear more than the front. They've done around 1500 miles and judging by my last set of Open Pros I'd say they are good for another 1000 miles plus, last pair worn through at just over 3000 miles. Both the zenith hubs are in good condition, the bearing recently changed, although a little gritty when spun in your hands, they do spin freely and you can't tell once fitted to a bike, plus they have cartridge seal bearing so easy to swap out. The rear hub in for a 10 speed Campagnolo cassette, cassette not included. They are both pretty damn straight, although not absolutely perfect as they are used.

    Im after some good quality 27" wheels with 100mm front spacing and 120 rear spacing. I would consider wheels with a different rear wheel spacing or maybe ever just a pair of rims, depending on what they are and there condition.

    What do you have?

    Cheers Andy

  • 10 speed?

    I've got some Campag hubs for a freewheel, laced to unlabelled alloy rims.

  • Yep 10 Speed, Single or Double walled rims? Any Pictures?

  • Single-walled. Looking again, they are engraved Weinmann and 27x1 1/4".

    If you're still interested, I'll take some pics.

  • yep Im interested. just out of interest is the rear hub a 120mm spacing?

  • It's not spaced at all at the moment!

    I stripped it down after buying it, but only used the front in the end, so haven't rebuilt it: I'll space it to 120mm.

    I'll get some photos done: I'll show you mine, if you show me yours...

  • Ha, cool will stick some up tonight, what i can say is they are clean and silver! silver anodised hubs, Silver anodised rims and polished stainless spokes! ;-)
