[#1073456]

Mavic XM317 Rims, Shimano Deore (M525) Hubs & unknown spokes.

Good condition, just wondering what I could get for them when I upgrade?

look them up on Merlin and then reckon to get about 50-70% of that would be my view.

Thanks the RRP on Merlin seems to be £99.95, but they were selling them for £72.

So I could maybe get £50 for them, hopefully more?

£50-ish is about right. (Remember Merlin use branded spokes)

£40 plus postage tops I would say.

Ill maybe throw my X-lite skewers in to see if i can get more, but they are worth as much as the wheels!

X lite skewers? Include them only if you want to get less for the wheels.

😉

It's a good point. Wheels like that would sell better with the Shimano QRs. Or sell them without and sell the QRs seperately. 🙂

P.S.
I recently bought some used OE wheels off a mate. He'd had the front rebuilt for a 20mm axle and I'd already had his old hub for £5. I got the pair for £40. But it turns out the OE rear is actually a DT Swiss Onyx (£110 on CRC) and the front hub was a Pro 2. £6 worth of bearingas and a couple of new spokes out of my tool box later, I have a perfect set of wheels...... 😀 )

What KingTut said. But then again there are plonkers who will just buy anything without checking -so try it and see what happens.
