    If you're prepared to wait til June I'm building a nice set of 30mm Kinlin rims on Bitex hubs (RAF10, RAR9). 20/24 spokes. Haven't bought spokes yet. Should be coming in fairly light. Met a sales guy at the Taipei Bike Show from Bitex and they are quite an impressive company. He showed me this new 6 pawl hub which they are patenting and I picked up a set for a decent price.

    I have an old set of Campag shamal's (black) if interested.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 631 ✭✭✭Fender76


    Hey BennyMul, How old, what condition are the Shamals...?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,173 ✭✭✭BennyMul


    I reckon about 10 years old (could be wrong). Condition is perfect. I purchased them at the time for race wheels and that's all they did, and since I stopped racing they are sitting there.

    I can take a few pictures tonight if you wish.

    Ah ok, thanks BennyMul... I reckon 10 years is a bit much but thanks anyway...
