What is this?

Alright, here are some images
I didn't steal this, I got it from a guy who was giving a bunch of his stuff away. It was with the Austro Daimler frame and two weinmann wheels I got.
Here is the info from the stickers, etc


21" Mavic 32 Hole Rim 217 SUP 59 x 227

Built With the Best Wheelsmith Spokes

Shimano Deore XT HB-M738 Parallax 110 Hub

Thank you,
Shawn

"What is this?"

Well, that certainly looks like a 21" Mavic 32 Hole Rim 217 SUP 59 x 227

Built With the Best Wheelsmith Spokes

and a Shimano Deore XT HB-M738 Parallax 110 Hub

It looks a lot like a front wheel. However, my girlfriend saw an infomercial yesterday about this thing that looks like a chicken but actually makes soft-, medium-, or hard-boiled eggs. So, things aren't always what they seem.

bax ftw

It quite clearly says in the first pic that it's 559x17 so it's just your typical MTB front wheel. Dunno where you got the 21" sillyness from.
Also, why did you feel the need to stress that you didn't steal it?

You guys want a beer? I was given the beers by a dude along with a broken tv, by the way, I didn't steal them. You know, if you were wondering.

Not to mention Parallax hubs are MTB hubs.

I'd buy it for a dollar and throw it at you.
