Hi all
i have the offer of a set of Mavic 823 UST rims, 32h & Hope Pro 2 hubs, 20mm front, rear Hope qr, with Hope floating rotors (but not to bothered about them)for very little compared to the cost of having them built, they have been used only a handful of times and are in as new condition, but are they any good, the rims that is, lets not start a debate on the merits of proII's as thats been done to the death
i know the rims are basically mavics dh/freehide rim (the same as the Deemax) and as such on the heavier side, but on th eother hand i currently run Halo Freedom Disc wheels which are not exactly light, in fact doing a quick approximate caalculation puts the hubs and rims of the Halos as heavier than the Mavic/Hope set, but by the time i have added ust tyres and sealant will it be heavier?
So basically are the wheels any good?
And seeing as you'll no doubt be curious i'm talking change from £100
Cheers
