Shiny!

 

[Paulus]

Very nice.
Have you got a frame in mind to go with them?

 

[Cycleops]

I imagine they are BMX wheels?

 

[Astrodamus]

Not mine, but I know who is selling them. I think they are like $1400 on the bay. I can’t imagine what build these could go on.. maybe a late ‘70’s DG

Also not mine

Never associated Araya with premium rims, but equally didn't know Campag made hubs for BMX.

Isn't a hub just a hub, subject to the dropout width?

 

[Astrodamus]

Yeah, that’s the history of early BMX.. kids took their dad’s roadbike and borrowed quality parts for their bmx conversions.. stronglight cranks, campagnolo hubs, brakes, etc.. banana seats were replaced with Brooks saddles..

I love the maverick spirit of BMX. Not my thing for many years now, but it's properly skilful stuff and some of the trick riding they do is absolute insanity.
