Sold Nuke proof hubs on 217 sunsets…

My dream wheels when I was a young’un. But I now need the space, and having been up in the loft for the better part of a decade, I need to admit I love them too much to ride….

So time to find a better home for them.

Hubs are Nuke proof carbon and titanium. Suspension front, cassette rear. In good condition, with no signs of drying out or delaminating. Bearings super smooth on the front. Rear a little scratchier, but nothing some grease wouldn’t fix.

Rims are stunning, with plenty of life left in them. A few scratches to the coating on both front and rear, but I’ve taken photos of the worst bits so you can see for yourself.

Black spoke nipples so will go with any build.

Comes with an M900 8 speed cassette, and the smoke and dart tyres (I presume repros as they’re in too good condition to be originals).

Only issue with the wheels is that one spoke on the front wheel needs replaced.

Let’s start at £250 £225 collected from central or south west London. With the tyres and cassette I think that’s a pretty good deal. But shout if you think I’m off.

Postage will depend on where they’re going, and probably just as importantly, me being able to get a box big enough to take them.

And some more. The colours in the sunshine really are stunning.

I should have taken one photo of both wheels, rather than all close ups. Shout if you want one!

Bump before they go on the bay. I'd prefer to sell them here, but it's reduced fee weekend, so will stick them on if there are no takers here...
 
For what it's worth, the issue with the front wheel is a cracked nipple. The spoke itself seems fine. Should be an easy fix if you have access to a spoke nipple driver...
 
Bump and price drop to £225. Can travel for an hour or so from SW London if that helps to smooth a transaction...

Remain a stunning set of wheels.
