Brand new, never ridden. Perfect wheelset for winter training. 1,743g with very solid 32 spoke construction- this is a fair bit lighter than most entry-level wheelsets.

Looking for €125.

Hi Blorg,

I'm not fully up on compatibility, will these wheels work with shimano 9 speed? Or is there no compatability between the two?

If they will work, I'll offer €100

Hi Brian,

I think they should be 9 speed compatible, almost all ten speed wheels are with the exception of some very few that used raised splines. I'll double check tonight. I would want more than €100 though, if I don't get close to the asking I'll keep them and use them for cyclocross.

I emailed them earlier and they said that they varied but I just checked and they are 10-speed only. This does have the benefit if you are running 10 speed that you will not get the cassette digging into the splines (10 speed only is raised splines.)

Hi Blorg,

Thats ok then, I'm just looking to replace my damaged wheels, I can't really afford to upgrade the groupset as well (much as I may want to!)

Thanks anyway

Brian
