    Hi all,
    I am looking to pick up a pair of Mavic Ksyrium SLs, Elite S or equally light aluminium clinchers. Must be clean, in good condition with plenty of life left.
    I've already got a pair of Aksiums, so just looking for something a bit lighter, and stiffer for sportives/racing.
    Cheers.

    Thanks, am interested. But Carlow is a stretch as I'm in dublin. Photos would be great and even better now that someone else is also interested :)

    Hey,

    One of the lads is selling a set of elites I think, he got them towards the end of last year and I'd say he might have done 500/700km's max I'd say, they were like new when I seen them, I can get pics tomorrow for you, I think he paid around €900/950 for them,

    Cheers zip,

    Can you give an idea of 'slight wear' on rear? If you put a straight edge up against the rim is it concave any bit?
    Are the bearing ok?

    Wear is less than the thickness of a bank card.
    Bearings are fine.

    A bank card is around .8mm, and it's not recommended to use light rims beyond 1mm wear (I know, we stretch it).
    So I'll pass at €290 thanks (new 2014 sets available from €350-360 on German discount sites -4thebike.de, www.bike-discount.de, etc)‏
