Hi
I'm selling a wheel and wondered if anyone could tell me what they think a fair price would be for it.
It's in fantastic condition and is a Mavic Open Pro rim, 32h, with Miche Primato track hub. Unsure about the spokes.
Any suggestions? I was thinking around the £45 or I think that's about $70.
Thanks

Front or rear?

Either way, I'd try to see it for more than $70 USD.

It doesn't really matter what I think that it's worth. You'll still have to find a buyer whose opinion matches mine. Track hub is going to be a big plus for some buyers and a deal killer for many others.

Just pull a number out of your head and try to sell it for that. A month from now, if you still have it, the price was too high. If you sold it, the price was too low.

Ok, advice noted. thanks. One more question. How do I tell the difference between clincher and tubs?
