Wanted - 650b wheels and tyres.

Post by macskive »

Looking for a set of wheels for a surly straggler if anyone has anything knocking about to sell.

Must be QR front and rear.

Clearance wise, probably about 2" wide max tyre size, ideally 650b x 45 to 50mm.

Based in Edinburgh.

Thanks

I have a pair of WTB Horizons I bought in error and didn't get around to returning. Never fitted. Any interest, or are you after something more off-road capable?

Interested in both of those options. How much would you be looking for for them?

A quick google at Horizons suggests £36 ea, so how about £60 the pair (posted)?

Theres a good deal on ebay at the mo - alpkit 650b with their rebranded dynohub and a set of wtb byways already fitted tubeless for 200. Qr front and rear. Says they're little used and I'd have snapped them up if I hadn't already built a set at much greater expense...

Scotroutes, Mactheknife, thanks for the offers. I will need to sort out wheels before getting tyres so may come back to you.

Retiredtester, I shall look in to that wheelset, thanks.

Going to stick with 700c for now and see how big a tyre I can get away with.

Thanks all.
