    Does anyone have these in stock? My GF has a lovely new bike built up, minus wheels….

    Any alternatives I can buy today?

    If you run Campag then you are in luck. If not then you’ll be lucky to find a pair in stock.

    Just bought a set. Arrived next day. Look nice. Not sure how they compare to my stock CdF Shimano anchors, but i reckon they’re circa half the weight!

    I’ve done about 3000 miles on mine, maybe more and they are superb. Very light, not had to touch the spoke tension or hubs. Got mine from the boys at Cycle Centre in Congleton – don’t know if they’ve got stock but no harm in giving them a call? I’d hang out for some though – top quality kit.

    Any luck with these? I’m after some lighter CX wheels for my Dirty Disco. The stock wheels are a little heavier than I’d like.

    Just arrived today. Packaged from Edinburgh Cycles, no end caps so axle went through box and is damaged and just a bit of bubble wrap inside for protection, so black spokes no longer black. Pretty piss poor.

    Couple of observations on my wheels after 2 months of use:
    Free hub is sticking. Oil seal is being deformed so I think something is machined wrong. Will be going back when I get a chance but commuting on them every day.
    Aluminium axle ends are way too soft for stainless dropouts. Requires huge QR tightness to stop them moving.
    Other than that, all ok!
