    Fulcrum Racing 55 LG Road Bike Wheels

    Selling a pair of Fulcrum Racing 55 wheels. They came stock on a Cube bike but I believe they are the OEM version of the Racing 5 LG. Solid pair of training wheels with a more modern wide rim profile. Lots of life left in the rims (rear is more worn than the front), bearings are smooth. Shimano...

    wheels: cheap/strong/light - choose 2

    We've all come across this one. Whenever someone talks about buying wheels, somewhere along the thread someone will say "cheap, strong, light - choose two". Ok, I choose strong and light. Which wheels would you suggest? Now someone will say "What's your budget?" and I will say "there isn't...

    Changing a tube on carbon wheels.

    Looking at my Specialized Roubaix Elite, it seems to have carbon wheels, or at least not made of metal and I was wondering, when the time comes and I have to put a new tube in, can the wheels be damaged by using tyre levers, as you do on aluminium wheels?

When in large front ring and last few larger cogs on the cassette and small front ring and last few smaller cogs, the chain or derailleur makes a noise, as if the chain wants to jump up or...

    9-tooth jockey wheels

    Hi folks, is there a source, apart from robbing ancient Campy gear, for 9-tooth jockey wheels?... I know Acor (and others) make 10's, but, as, once again and as usual, I am doing something stupid to a Brompton and find myself needing to try and create as much room as possible around the chain...

    Anyone registered their Mavic wheels?

    I only became aware recently that Mavic wheels can be registered for an element of extra warrenty. I don't know anything further. I have asked Mavic if it's too late to register the wheels of my bike purchased Oct 2015. Have you registered any, and what does the Mavic "extra care" provide?

    Are better wheels really a step up ?

    Morning, I made a couple of calls about buying a new rear wheel to put on a Turbo Trainer tyre, to swap between road & turbo use etc, and someone suggested to me to consider upgrading the wheels on my Roubaix instead, - they are only Axis 4.0's on a 2015 Roubaix. Standard wheels etc, so I guess...

    SRAM Apex Jockey Wheels

    The RD on my commuter has become rather noisy of late, and looking at the jockey wheels they are smoothing off, with the chain not sitting on them nicely. They have done 9000 miles so no complaints. A replacement SRAM set is about £18. Anybody care to recommend an alternative before I simply...

    Will most mtb wheels take a 1.75" tyre?

    Hi I need to get a new front wheel for my old 1980s Raleigh Mustang. Will most mtb wheels be compatible with my bike and will most accommodate my 1.75" tyres? Also, if I get one with a quick release lever, will it be compatible with my front fork? Thanks

    Prime RP disc brake wheels tyre width

    I'm looking at these and they state a 16.5mm internal and 25mm external. How wide do your tyres measure once fitted and inflated (ideally Conti Gp4000 in 25mm as that is what I use). Any general experiences of the wheels would also be appreciated .

    Morning all, I have purchased the above wheelset. When taking the protective ends off each end of the wheel axle, only what I can describe as a stub axle came out, I was able to just push this back in, the only resistance felt was against the rubber 'O' Ring. The Front wheel bearings just...

    Another 'what wheels' thread!

    Looking to upgrade the standard Axis wheel that came with my Specialized Tarmac ahead of Spring. I live in the flatlands towards East Yorkshire, but will be doing some hilly sportives. I think I'd value the reliability of alloy track braking over deep section carbon. I'm riding 3,000 miles a...
