SeasonalCyclist Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Can anyone tell me whats the lifespan of this wheelset?
Flemish Lion Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Their lifespan can also get to an abrupt STOP when you hit a huge pothole!!It will depend how often you service the hubs, if you are a funrider or racer, where you live (number of potholes per square meter)...
SeasonalCyclist Posted April 15, 2008 Author Posted April 15, 2008 Err Maybe I should ask "when buying a 2nd hand set what should i look out for?"
SeasonalCyclist Posted April 15, 2008 Author Posted April 15, 2008 So considering the set has none of the above but has mileage of about 2K is R2000 Plus a good price?

madmarc Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 I have ridden with these rims for 4 or 5 years at a weight of 98kg down to 85kg and never had any problems
