    As per title really, would you? Tempted to track down a set of used Edge Composites AM rims, but I do wonder if a secondhand set is a risk or not? Waddayareckon STW experts? 🙂

    No, but then I have an aversion to buying anything 2nd hand thats not nearly new or old marzocchi.

    From bitter experience, its better to buy stuff in the sale for 3/4 RRP, than 50% RRP having already seen half its usable life.

    I wood. I’d be looking for lots of pics, an accurate description and much cheapness though.

    Would be kind of surprised if folk were selling them TBH, rims are a rare find SH.

    Xrays would be good, but not realistic I wouldn’t think? Not something the average seller is going to have access to is it…

    much cheapness though

    USD$700 for two rims (RRP is something like USD$1700 isn’t it)? Described as having only seen ‘moderate trail use’ and in great condition with no damage, just ‘normal’ surface scuffs and sticker nicks from use…

    Buying from America? Shirley that’s more riskey.
