    Not having much luck with spokes at the moment. A set of Mavis have gone back to Magic hopefully for a warranty replacement.

    My DT Swiss back ups (that have recently been rebuilt!) lost tension in the spokes this morning.

    Looking for a back up set of wheels. 11 speed shimano. Budget between€250-€500

    I can lend you a set of Easton ea90sl 11 speed but Campagnolo to tide you over if you like. I used them with my sram 11 speed no issues. 11-23 iirc.

    Thanks for the offer. I have a set of Planet X CT45s that I have spare but I don't want to be using them as a day to day wheel but may have to in the short term. Just looking for a training wheel.

    I may just buy a set of Zandas again. Only wheelmi never had an issue with

    Stupid phone. At this stage magic is probably the only thing that will sort them out.

    Mavic have gone to **** (personally speaking!)

    Decent wheels and they get good reviews for the heavier rider. Not sure I want to waste them as training wheels but defo will think about it.

    Any photos?

    Just been on to the LBS. they told me to bring the DT Swiss back for a free thne up somgling to do that today

    I have a set of Fulcrum CEX 6.5 running 11 speed Campag Chorus 11-28 cassette that works fine with Shimano/SRAM. They've had less than 150km and are perfect as I swapped them out for a set of Ksyrium SLS as soon as I could afford it.

    Only seeing this now which is a pity. I think cyclesuperstore do that deal reguraly. Must see if I can pick up a set. At that price I'd consider them disposable
