No, but they look sweet and, after all, they are Campy. Mavic has a new track wheelset that looks swank, too...straight pull bladed spokes and fixed/fixed hub. Here's a link and a pic:

I think they're basically same as campy shamal's but black. so, I guess they should be fine for good sunday cruisin'.

Oh man, those look seriously nice. I thought they were not available on their own. Thanks

I don't run a Campy rim, but do have a Record track hub on one of the commuters.
It doesn't shine as nice as the Dura Ace hubs on two of the other bikes.
I don't think they are available under the Shamal name as rims alone (short of damage replacement). Rather I think they go by Atlanta. As such, the Atlanta's are available in 32 hole if the urge hits.
