People that read my posts know I often talk about products I get through Chuck's Bikes (http://www.chucksbikes.com/) including my newly built road tandem.
He just posted 4 different models of 145mm wheelsets at amazing prices (3 road, 1 MTB)! I've ordered a set of the cheaper Dyad's (to match my disc setup) for a backup wheelset to my Hugi TD / Mavic A719 set. Always nice to have a spare set available in a pinch.
$295 - Velocity Dyad rims, Shimano Tandem hub set. 48 spokes front and rear, 700c, 145mm rear spacing.
$250 - Velocity Deep V 26 x 1.75 rim, Velocity tandem hubs with IS disc brake mounts, 145mm rear hub spacing, 40 spokes front and rear.
$230 - Velocity Dyad rim, Velocity tandem hubs with IS disc brake mounts, 40 hole front and rear, 145mm rear hub spacing, 700c.
$265 - Velocity Fusion rims, 40 spokes front and rear, Velocity tandem hubs with IS. disc brake mounts. 700c, 145mm rear hub spacing. Made for teams under 310lb.
Hope you all can get a deal for a backup / replacement set. Just keeping an "costful" eye out for the tandem community.
