I have a 1976 Raleigh Grand Prix, and recently I really got into road biking, so I decided to upgrade the wheels and rear dérailleur. Now I have a front and rear wheel that say MAILLARD on one side of the quick release lever, and M.M ATOM on the other, and a Simplex rear dérailleur.

I figure since I love the bike that there is no point in keeping these parts and being able to make it stock vintage.

Does anyone know what these are worth?

Cheers!

Are they steel (chrome) rims? If so, they are donation fodder, unless you are in some super hot market.

If they're in nice shape they're worth a little bit on eBay (or to me, coincidently). Otherwise pretty worthless common junk.
