    Mavic Aksium and Kysrium wheelsets

    Little used wheelsets, for bikes with rim brakes, taking up to 28 mm tyres. If any one has interest I will work up details. These wheels are surplus to my needs following my conversion to disc brakes.

    New bike purchased... advice required (esp wheels)

    Hi all - sadly the bike build for my own bike resulted in a bit that was a touch stretched out for me (the one I've built for Mrs R - Inc with a cpl components from this site is perfect) so I've gone 'off the peg' and purchased a Tifosi CK3 Giro 1.1 105 5800 (also gladly and strangely came with...
