Cx front wheel and FMB tub

    Hi all, since the Cx calendar shows the season starting even earlier this year, I thought now might be a good time to try and sell this.

    I bought a tubular front wheel from Boards last year to use on my singlespeed pit bike last year. However, I have since upgraded my pit bike to a geared disc braked bike.

    The tubular wheel is now surplus to requirements. I will double check this weekend when I dig the wheel out of the attic but I am pretty sure the rim is an old mavic reflex and I don't think the hub was branded. Silver rim, spokes and hub. The bearings are smooth and the wheel is true.

    I have glued an FMB supermud tub to it. It has been used for a few seasons. The grips are in good condition and it has never been punctured or repaired. The cotton sidewalls remain in good condition with minimal wear to be seen. However, I found at the last races of the season that I was washing out the front wheel on corners and am putting this down to the rubber drying out and losing grip (rather than my lack of skills!).

    Will sell it for €50. Collection in NCD or city centre. Good way to try out high end cx tubs at a cheap price.

    Will post pics at the weekend.
