    Can offer a matching pair.
    Suntour silver hubs (36h) with a 7speed block on the rear. Bearings are smooth.
    Mavic silver rims with very little wear.
    Silver spokes.
    Schwalbe Marathon 700x 25 tyres. Last forever jobbies. Could do with new tubes but both hold air.
    Not sure if I have skewers.

    D3 / D5.

    I think WOT has the style you're looking for but have a set of black aksiums that I'd let go for 75 with red zaffiro tyres

    Tyres are 23s

    The aksiums were 'officially' advertised as 8/9/10 speed. But because they came with a spacer, they could also be used for 11 speed if you remove spacer.

    I'd guess that a 7 speed cassette could be put on them but you'd need to find the right spacers to take up the extra freehub space.

    I't is likely that your missus' bike uses a 7 speed freehub so you are unlikely to be able to just move the parts over to these wheels.
