Built by Spa Cycles in late 2010. Not used since 2012, so it needs a new home.
Schmidt SonDelux dynamo hub in silver - http://www.nabendynamo.de/produkte/sondelux_en.html
36 spokes (I can't quite read what they are, I think Sapim of some form - nothing super fancy pants)
Rigida Chrina rim in silver
Includes allen key skewer
Everything in good order - I can not give an accurate usage on it, but I am going to estimate around 10-12000km. There's some concavity on the rim (see photo), but I measure the thickness WAY above a brand new Archetype (I must get a gauge where I actually know what the numbers mean!) and the safety line is not visible at all. I weigh as much as a bag of sugar, so am not hard on rims. Suffice to say, there's some life left in the rim, but it will need re-rimming at some point.
The hub has a service interval of 50000km, so that's got a way to go for that to happen!
Today, this wheel would cost you £218 from Spa - so how does £110 for the wheel sound? Collection from TW1 or possible meet up in SW London. Postage is an option, but I'd have to find a wheel box etc.
