Evening Folks,

Subject line says it all - all prices include shipping within the Continental U.S.

Pictures can be available tomorrow for all who would like to see some.

1. Wheelset: Nisi (no lables) clincher rims (36o) laced to Sunshine Professional Hubs - these are loose ball hubs w/oil ports and a 126mmm OLN. Hubs have been overhauled and are in excellent condition and the wheels have just recently been rebuilt with DT spokes w/brass nipples as follows: Front: 1.8mm @2x; Rear: 1.8mm/2.0mm (butted in other words!) drive side @3x; 1.8mm non-drive side @2x and with DT spoke washers. Original QR's included. Complete with new Velox rim tape. $135.00

2. Rims: Super Champion Medaille d'Or - 36o; These have never been built up but have some shop wear (they should polish up just fine) from 30+ years of avoiding "ownership" but decals are perfect For those of you not familiar with these rims, they are VERY LIGHT with a listed weight of 280gms - My scale reads them @ 285gms - they are also VERY DELICATE!! Read this as "If you're heavier than ~160-170 lbs, these are probably not for you". They don't like high spoke tension (or potholes!!!), so they won't take a great deal of weight - riding technique probably matters quite a bit as well. If you want some classic rims to "float" up the hills for you, or simply looking to do a restoration on a genuine lightweight, these are the rims. $50.00

3. Maillard Course 6 speed (13-21) Freewheel - British thread - This is a standard width 6 speed and not an Ultra. Brand new, but not in a box and not all that great in the hill country where I live!!!!! $35.00
