Iro deep V's?

I was wondering if Iro made their own deep v's? and for how much is a set or the price for just the front....or just the price for the rear fixed/free wheel?

Deep V is a rim made by Velocity... so IRO probably doesn't make products that are made by a completely different manufacturer...

I think you can order a set of their wheels for $270 I think. Check their website.

Deep v's are 30 mm deep and our rims are 24mm deep.

Hub? Spokes? Build? Condition?

^ i'd say it's worth it. Iro rims are solid, and lighter than deep v's

Again, this is something that can't be ascertained over the internet. Is the brake track significantly worn? Handbuilt? Machine built?

i believe its laced to an iro hub....machined washed seems pretty decent. i think iro laced it up for him since he did buy an iro frame and it came with the bike
