I am also selling my racing wheels. Planet X Carbon 50, 700c, tubulars, shimano. Tubulars are included and installed. The rear one is brand new (I just paid $150 for the tire and installation). Price: $450.
FYI, you can upload them at tinypic.com. You don’t even have to set up an account.
Thanks.
yummy.
x2. And GREAT quote. Where’d u get it from?
Interested in the wheels. Approximate mileage? What type of Contis are those? Glued or taped? Are the Planet-X decals clearcoated or are they removable? Thanks!
500-600 miles. The tires, I don’t know the exact model. I know that the back one is like snake skin. It cost $90 plus $60 of installation. They are both glued. The decals are clearcoated.
Thanks, I need wheels that can be devoid of labeling.

Snake Skin = Conti Sprinter Gatorskin. They sell for about $45. A tube of glue = $4. You paid someone $150 to put that on!!! I’d be pissed if I were you.
Nice wheels though.
I am not a mechanic. But I doubt they charged me $90 for something that was $45. They are nice guys at that shop. Either your $45 was a clearence sale, or it is not the same model. And for the labor, that is what happens when I am not handy with the mechanical part. I just have to pay for it.
Not to start an argument, but yes, they charged you $90 for something that normally costs $45 or less. Do an internet search.
Again, very nice wheelset, you just got ripped on the rear tire/install!
OK, I just checked…looks like most places in the US are a little closer to $60

But probikekit.com has them in stock on a regular basis for less than $40 shipped.
Anyway, no matter, nice wheels, someone will buy them
