I've had these wheels for about 12 years. They've been everywhere and done everything. They are black Mavic 517 ceramic on Hope Fatso/Suspension and Ti glide hubs, using narrow gauge DB DT spokes with brass Raspberries.

They were made for me by Simon at Nirvana Cycles, and I've never once had to tweak their nips to keep them in order. They are perfectly straight and round , and there are no stone dents or suchlike.
The front ceramic coating is just about perfect, though the rear is pitted and showing signs of wearing through in places.
The Bearings are original, and the front is whispering a bit, and the rear is a bit rumbly (just a bit), but for twelve year old bearings they're not bad at all.
Front hub is rim brake only, but rear has splines for a 5 bolt spider (lockring included but not shown.)
No Skewers included.
£125 posted to UK.
