Vintage wheelset. 36h 700c
Araya 1W aero rims
DT stainless steel spokes
Campagnolo Gran Sport hubs 126mm BSA threading.
As you can see from the pictures there is virtualy no wear on the rim braking surfaces or the axle cones. There is ZERO pitting on the cones and races.
They may not be cheap but I can gaurantee you that its impossible to build a set up like these for less. Hubs have fresh Mobil 1 synthetic grease and are properly adjusted.
Break it down:
Spokes: $72
Hubs: $50
Rims $80
Labor to build: $70 or $25 shipping to get the spokes rims and hubs to your door if your going to build them yourself.
$125 firm plus actual shipping.
