700c Wheels

[iateyoubutler]

What`s out there please? Not looking to spend loads, maybe £100 or so (plus postage). After something with cartridge bearings and Shimano hub to put on my Secteur, as the original cup and cone wheels are cr*p, and heavy.

Can pick up in the south west, or pay postage

No wheels for sale at present, but these are £150 from Superstar Components: https://www.superstarcomponents.com/en/essentials-road-2-2018-rim-clearance-wheelset.htm

I've done LEL on Superstar Components wheels, my son then used them for a winter and we're still using them.

Well no I don't, Shimano hubs for wheels are cup and cone and do not take cartridge bearings.

I mean it takes a Shimano cassette 😒

Edit: gone out of stock for 700c at the below, although they're on eBay at £105: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PRO-LITE...C-30mm-Type-Alloy-Road-Wheel-set/254283836272

£100 gets you some Pro-Lite Garda wheels (£90 with 10% BC discount) from Chain Reaction: https://www.chainreactioncycles.com/pro-lite-garda-a30w-clincher-road-wheelset/rp-prod175435

My 15yo had these in their 650c guise and they were decent. We've got some Bracciano's at the moment, which are nice. Review here; https://road.cc/content/review/172668-pro-lite-garda-ds-alloy-clincher-wheelset

@iateyoubutler there's a 30% discount on Superstar Components wheels during October with code

OCT19​

That makes these £105 and an absolute bargain. I've too many wheels otherwise I'd be buying.

There's also these available on Wiggle for comparison for about the same price as the superstars above.

That being said it's probably worth weighing your current wheels (no tyre, skewers or cassette) to get a better idea of what they weigh so you can compare better.

I have some Mavic wheels. Within looking I think they are Aksiums
DM me if you’re interested and I’ll have a look
