    Hi all,
    I'm just wondering if anyone has a decent road wheelset that they are willing to sell?

    I am looking for a set of wheels for road racing so ideally need them to be as light and aerodynamic as possible. I currently use a set of Ksyrium Elite S wheels so i would like to make a noticeable upgrade from them. So if possible, i am thinking a carbon wheelset with somewhere between 40-50mm rim depth. Good condition is vital too. Hope i'm not being too picky :pac:

    I have only ever used clinchers so i am not really keen on the idea of tubulars unless there is a bargain to be had

    Budget is approx €750 bud might be able to stretch it a bit more if there is a decent wheelset available

    I have a pair of campagnolo bora ultra 2s - 50mm carbon rims with carbon hubs and ceramic bearings. Wheels genuinely as new with no wear on them. Tubulars though so might not be what you are after.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the reply.

    Are these the wheels you have? If not could you post a link?
    What price are you looking for? Tubs included or not?

    The ones in your link are the 2015 model. My ones are the previous version. There were changes made this year to the braking surface and the spoke nipples are now external as opposed to internal.

    I have continental GP4000 tubs on them (one is punctured), but I have a new pair of continental sprinter tubs I could include. Looking for 900. Wheels are as new with no wear on the braking surface.

    Very Interested.

    Are they 11 speed shimano compatible?

    Edit: Where are you based?

    sorry I missed that.

    OP, that's a cracking price for them. snap his hand off for them - I have a set I was thinking of putting back on the market but felt I wouldn't get a better set for what I was looking for.

    Sounds fantastic,

    Would you be willing to accept paypal and post them? (i'm based in the south west and wont be in dublin in the next few weeks)
    If yes, deal at €900 and I'll cover postage costs aswell

    Edit: Can you send me some pictures of them too?
