Eroica Wheelset: Wolber TX Profile NOS on Campag Record new

[Grease Monkey]

Built on nos Wolber 32/32 tubular rims last June for L'eroica Britannia, especially for a Bianchi Rekord 920. New stainless spokes, double butted, nos Suntour Winner 6 speed freewheel and nos rear Vittoria Rally Kevlar tubular (front Vittoria too).

Wheels have covered 1day: 35 miles only (the L'Eroica short course) and dry stored ever since.

Looking to get back build cost £190 (rims £95, spokes and building £70, NOS Tubular £25). All in they cost me £325 (Record hubs and nos Freewheel)

Fabulous tubular feel on the road and the TX rims look the 80's part. TX rims selling all over the Bay NOS for £120-160 a pair. Without doubt THE tubular rim of choice of the era.

Only selling because upgrade of the bianchi to full C Record.

Wheels dished for 6/7/8 speed. Can supply a 7 speed Maillard freewheel also - buyer's choice.

Does that mean the 6 speed winner might be available?

Free with a pair of wheels If the buyer takes the 7 speed Maillard, you have first dibs on the Winner.

 

[Grease Monkey]

Reduced to £180: roughly the price of a new set of TX rims on the Bay.

If you don't mind me asking but can you tell me exactly what is NOS about these wheels please ?

 

[Grease Monkey]

Everything, except the hubs. Completely rebuilt with brand new TX rims. I know you're a stickler for NOS in the boxes Ian, so I'll let you off with it.

One days use - 35 miles. Not even long enough to get dust in them. Paid £325 all in, selling £180. It's a fair price for the usage I think..

 

[Ian Raleigh]

Its just that the rear rim looks like it has covered a thousand or so miles, or is it glue marks on the edge of the rear rim ?

 

[Grease Monkey]

It's just glue from a brand new tub.
