SOLD!!!






Here are the specs:
Weight 1655g (clinchers)
45mm profile
18 radial spokes up front and 24 radial (non-drive side) & two-cross (drive side) rear spokes

I bought these from a friend so I don't know the exact mileage of them.
But here's the deal:
The back wheel is great. It rolls great. No problem. The cassette is an Campagnolo 11-23 (which will remain on it). I will also keep the tires on them (Mich. Pro 2. Still good).

The front wheel has a rough spot on the braking surface. I've ridden these a lot and have had no issues - well except during braking you can feel it.
But, I'm basically trying to sell the rear wheel and throw in the front for the heck of it.

**** NEW PRICE***
250.00 plus shipping.

***************************************************************************


I want to make this perfectly clear. I'm selling the rear wheel, cassette, tires, and tubes. The front wheel is thrown in "AS IS."

It does have a bad spot on the braking surface. Yes, I've ridden them. No, I haven't raced them.
But I may have confused some people. That is MY fault. Not theirs.

I just don't want to be responsible for the front wheel. There's such a carbon scare all over the forum. Please accept my apologies. Especially anyone who has PM'd me. I don't want to start bad relationships here.

Is the cassette a 9 or 10 speed? When you say you can feel the front wheel during braking, is it like a pulsing feeling? Is the Front wheel true?

How mich are you looking to get?

Sorry. It's a 10 speed cassette.

The front wheel is true, but the braking surface is rough at the point shown in the close up. It's kind of hard to see. But you can definitely feel it. Like I said, however, I'm not selling them as a pair, per se. I'm selling the rear wheel with cassette and the tires and tubes. Just throwing the front wheel in "As Is."

PM me and we can make a deal for it.

Jesus, what the hell kind of PMs did you get? I think you made it perfectly clear in your original post, some people just can't read I guess.

No. I think I could have previously mislead. I don't want to blame anyone.
Saying that the front wheel has a poor braking surface really didn't imply that the wheel may be screwed up.

Everyone backed out. Still available. Still carbon. Still has a bad front wheel ... but a good deal if you PM me.

I need to buy another 11-speed cassette and a couple other things. It would help a brutha out.
