    I'm looking for a worn out Mavic Aksium rear wheel to scavange for spokes. A 20 or 24 spoke wheel will suit, either crashed or worn out.

    I have one- where are you based? Just to add, it's not crashed or worn out. Went out of true and crap bike shop made it worse. It was a spare anyway, so I did nothing with it after.

    Work is Glasnevin. Seems a pity to break a wheel that's ok though. What would you want for it?

    Have one in the shed. Hub and spokes ok but rim badly worn. Live in Glasnevin too so if you want to have a look at it, PM me.

    Hey lads,

    If the op has no use for the all and if there is one of them good enought for a turbo wheel I'll take one,

    Cheers zip,

    If you want to look at my one for the turbo please do. I'm in mid-Kildare, don't know if that's going to suit you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,440 ✭✭✭cdaly_


    @Magilla, can you put a price on yours please? Also, which bit of mid-Kildare, I might spin out to see.

    @Mercian, I'll PM you later...

    I'm near Newbridge but in Naas every day so I can bring it there if it helps. Say €30? Just to state, the wheel is going to need tightening/truing- I want to be clear on that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,440 ✭✭✭cdaly_


    I think I'll have to pass on that one so. It would be a shame to break it when a trueing should sort it out.

    No worries cdaly.

    I'll post up a picture soon as a few people are interested in this. I also have a Giant wheel (Shimano as well)- needs spokes replaced but I have the spares.

    To be honest I'm not looking to make money on these so if anyone wants to check them out and take them away, they can. If I get a few bob for my trouble, I won't complain!!
