wheelset acquired. $299 for a time capsule set of Mavic A119 hoops laced to Deore XT M760 hubs. All silver, perfectly suited for this build. Super stoked! They were built-never-ridden and for sale on consignment at a shop in SoCal. The shops' ebay store led me to their website and a $20 coupon sealed the deal. $329 shipped.
Half of this build will be comprised of discontinued but excellent components. This gets me stoked.

Low miles and very little brake track wear. Velocity A23 700c rims, 20H front and rear, black with machined side walls. Tubeless-taped. Front is an SP SV-9 front dynamo hub, 100mm. Note that the hub is slightly noisy than my other dynamo hubs, but I ran it as-is for a bit with no issues. Rear is a DT Swiss 240 11-speed road hub, 130mm spacing. Some cassette bite on the freehub body, but if you don't already know, these are designed to be very serviceable and last forever. $400 On Thursday, November 20, 2025 at 12:50:42 PM UTC-5 [email protected] wrote: i’m in portland oregon. i guess i should have mentioned that there is some flexibility on budget. target is $300 but if we had to spend $375 to get something satisfactory i would be ok with it. and that my wife is lighter than me so the rim doesn’t need to be super robust. 32h would be fine. i’ll check out ben’s cycle. thanks all!

If I remember correctly, they don't charge for building, so the prices tend to be less than competitors. $300 used to be doable with Deore and an inexpensive rim...

Make sure to one of their 10% off coupons.

What region of the world are you in? If you can find something local to you that's 50 extra dollars closer to making a deal.

I can't find anything new. Have come close. Some 100/130 examples exist. But curious if anyone might have a lead on something pre-owned? No disk hubs allowed even if the rim is rim brake compatible. I just can't. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to a topic in the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
