    I have an Elite Volare turbo. Works fine but the cable will need replacing. Also have a Campag Bullet carbon wheel a Conti GP4000sII 23mm and an Ultegra 10 speed cassette. Will include a couple more tyres

    €120 firm collected.

    Would you sell the cassette separately?

    I'll check it in the morning to see that it's OK. As far as I know it hasn't had much use. No problem posting

    Hi,
    If this sale hasn't happened & doesn't go ahead I'd be interested.

    Thanks,
    Pa

    Hi, also interested if both previous sales fall through (and you're in reason for me to collect given Covid).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,652 ✭✭✭Trekker09


    Sincere apologies to catweazle! I completely forgot about this due to work commitments. I'd do the cassette for €25 + postage.

    Wheel and turbo are still available as I have a direct drive


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,721 ✭✭✭✭CianRyan


    Excuse my ignorance but I've been out of the game for some time, does direct drive mean I wouldn't need to buy another cassette?
    Is the cable the same as any I could buy in my LBS?

    Sorry to bombard you with questions.

    No problem, bombard away!

    There are 2 different types, wheel on and direct drive.

    Wheel on means that the back wheels is locked onto the turbo at the axle and the tyre is in contact with a roller.

    A direct drive has a cassette built into the body of the trainer, so you remove the rear wheel .

    The following link should explain it better than I did!

    Hi,

    I sent a PM yesterday regarding the wheel & tyre (and cassette if still available). Are you willing to post them?
    Thanks,
    Pa.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,652 ✭✭✭Trekker09


    Again, apologies for not updating this.

    I'd prefer collection once Covid regulations are strictly adhered to but have no problem posting with DHL if need be, although sipping will be extra. All items are still available and I'll include a spare tyre.

    Any questions just ask. I can access boards now from my office so I'll keep an eye on comments!

    A few Q's:
    Do you know that a replacement cable is available for the turbo?
    What's the condition of the wheel? Can you post some pics?
    What are you now asking for the items given that the cassette is missing?
    Thanks !

    As far as I know it's a standard cable but I'll check it out.
    The wheel is well used and only suitable for indoor use. Hub is fine just brake track is worn.
    I have the 10 speed cassette available.

    The cable might be working. I'll have a good look later. I never used it but ti might only need a bit of lubricating
