Group Buy - Interest in a Pro-Lite Wheelset Group Buy?

I have a contact with Pro-Lite, and had a brief discussion about a group buy around the 1st of the year. Pro-Lite has a full line set of wheels, and his gaining ground in Tri circles. I’d like to set up a small group buy that we could quickly get enough buyers and ship the wheels. I’m thinking a carbon wheel set, I’m not sure if I can offer several different wheel sets or pick one set that everyone would get the same. Anyway, their webiste is:

Either post here or drop me a PM if you are interested, and in which wheelset. It will be awhile before I can get cost and finalize the details if we can move forward.

i'de be interested depending on price

What is the price? Also which carbon? They have tubular/clincher, 50mm/38mm. I wouldn't mind some light 38mm clinchers, depending on the price.

Interested unless the BD wheel buys are better.

Which wheelset is the 38mm carbon clincher wheelset?

I'd be interested in a set of clinchers.
But I'll stay watching the forum for more updates.
thanks.

I'm just testing the water so to speak, but will have more details in about a month. I'll see if we can get enough to purchase 1 wheel type, but if we can't get enough people, maybe we can get some prices on a couple different sets. Thanks for the interest.

interested in the gavia tubular 50mm

Depending on the price, I'm interested in the Gavia clincher.

It would depend on the price, but maybe Gavia tubulars. 16 spokes up front makes me nervous though. Are there weight limits on these?

interest, pending clincher, pending price, pending clients paying me what i'm owed.

I've seen a combo of a 50 front and 90 rear offered in a road/track compatible set. I'd be interested in that or dual 90s.

^^ we're on 5 now

Make that +6, any specs on weight for the Gavia clincher. I only saw it for the tubular.

Remember these have internal nipples. Not a huge deal for clinchers, but a real PITA for tubulars.

i did some research and remember reading the clinchers with the metal braking surface were around 1700grams...the full carbon was 100 or so grams lighter. iono how reliable those sites were though

i don't remember where i read it but it was a site selling the wheels.

No weights or prices?

interested in 38mm gavia

Color me interested in the 50/90 setup.

Thanks.

+10 on the 50mm Gavia clinchers, depending on price of course

Is this where it ends? I would think wheels would be the most desirable group buy yet. EVERYONE needs wheels!

I'll try and get some more info in Decemeber, but my contact is very busy right now.

When you get the prices, can you post them here? There would be a lot more interest if you could quote prices.

*bump*

There were many people interested in the 38mm Carbon Clinchers [Gavia]

Any word on where this group buy is going?

i could go for the basics any one of the three ... Stelvio Luciano Como clincher wheelset :P

I want that radioactive disc:

Anybody have specs like the weight on the gavias?

I'll try and get an update after Thanksgiving.

I'd be interested in the Gavia-C carbon clincher w/alloy braking surface.

Hey guys, sorry for the delay. I finally spoke to the distributor. The Gavia 38mm clinchers are no longer available, but he did have 4 or 5 sets of demo wheels. These have some use, but are warranted by the distributor against manufacturing defects. Cost is $600 shipped.

38 mm Clincher Rim is designed of carbon fiber with aluminum brake surface
Shimano Hub
20 Spoke Front, 24 Spoke Rear
Bolzano Rear Single billet CNC machined Hub
Front 790g, rear 990g (clincher) - as published by Pro-Lite

He can also include a pair if Michelin Pro2Race in Black/Gray for $60 if you are interested.

He will also discount current new wheels, so if there is something else you are interested send me a PM.

You can check out his web-site and wheels available at:

Let me know, for the Gavia first come first serve. Please PM to confirm.

Thanks

I'm moving this to group buys, sorry......

Find me some 50mm clinchers or deeper. Don't care on material. Something not in the same price range of Zipps would be nice.

uhh.. last post was almost a year ago....

I would be in on the Gavia 38mm with alloy braking surface

uhh.. last post was almost a year ago....

Gahhhhh foiled again. If not for these meddling kids.
