FS: Mavic ellipse wheelset, BLB toe clips and straps

Posted on
  • Mavic ellipse wheel set with loads of life left in them although the axel on the rear wheel has stripped and is fused into the hub. I couldn't manage to get it out and neither could the guy in Brixton Cycles, but you're welcome to take a punt on the wheel and try for yourself as I've got a new rear axel.

    Nothing wrong with the front wheel at all, still super solid and true.

    Rear wheel with new axel, £35
    Front wheel, £70
    Rear axel by itself, £15

    Also have some BLB steel double braced toe clips, only used 10 times or so, £10

    Same goes for BLB leather double straps with a load of life left in them, £10

    Pick up from kennington evenings and weekends, Shoreditch in the week for the toe clips and straps.

    Let me know if you have any questions or want anymore pics.

  • Hi mate,
    Interested in the wheels. Is the rear cone the one that’s rounded or the axle nut?

  • The axle itself is stripped so it's not possible to tighten the nuts. It's obviously a common problem if you over tighten, but seems like a lot of people have had this issue with the ellipses especially. What dyou mean by rear cone?

  • Front wheel is provisionally sold, I'll update this if it falls through.

  • These aren't typical cone and nut systems. The axle is tighetened from one side by a cone that can be tightened/loosened by dual pin pliers. The same problem has happened to me and I've literally been through a set of pliers to try and remove them. Glws and sorry it happened to you aswell.

  • Thanks for the input dude! Yeah I've heard this is fairly common with ellipses. Other than that they were such great wheels.

  • Front wheel sold, back wheel dropped to 30 and the toe clips and straps still available

  • Care to send the rear wheel overseas?

  • Dibs on rear wheel! Could you include a lockring?

  • Hello mate - the toe clips and straps still up for grabs by any chance? PM incoming

  • what size are the toe clips?

  • Sorry been really slack on this. Front wheel, Toe clips and straps are sold, rear wheel still available

  • Hi,
    willing to post the rear wheel to Romania?
    Does it come with the lockring?
    Thank you.
