    hi,
    im clearing out the bike room and have a few old wheels to get rid of. They are only really fit for parts or repair but someone may have a use for them

    Roval Fusee SL pair - back rim is cracked and one spoke is broken. Front it perfect but punctures tyres and I have no idea whats wrong with it. Checked rim tape ect. Came off an An Post bike a few years ago. Hubs are carbon roval front and dt swiss rear and run literally as smooth as butter. In fact new bearings were placed in the rear wheel the day before the rim cracked. Spokes are bladed. Heard someone say these were worth other $600 when new, cant confirm this but looking for 30 for the pair. If the front is fixed its a bargain because they are very light wheels. Pictures can be taken if need but are the same as these.

    Mavic ma3 rear - fairly worn, free hub is gone, rims and spokes are perfect. 8speed casttette included 10

    Bontrager race lights- Bearings gone in back and beginning to go in front. bladed spokes 20 for pair

    pictures can be provided. Based in sligo but am regularly in dublin

    I'll take the pair of Rovals for €30 next time you're in Dublin.
    I presume they're sram/Shimano compatible...?

    A close up photo of rim damage would be great.

    When you say the freehub is gone is the bearings knackered or are the pawls knacked?

    And are the bont race lights 10speed?

    Basically, the cassette can ocasionally spin both ways ie theres no resistence if you get me. I say ocasionally because it only happens when i stop pedalling and usually sorts itself out however ocasionally it needed to be "banged" to get going again. Im pretty sure its the pawls but wouldnt be surprised if it was both.

    The bontrager are 10 speed, there actually not race lights there acually just standard bontrager alloy rims.Sorry about that
