Posting here in the hope someone has something stashed away..

I'm looking for a decent 26" rim brake/V-brake wheelset, preferably with Shimano hubs with dust seals like the LX/XT/XTR hubs
Alternatively also looking for decent loose 26" rim brake/V-brake compatible rims and hubs.
I have a really nice vintage Kona that I have built up but the wheelset is toast and rim brake 26" wheels are not easy to find
Seems if you don't hammer it using some disc specific rims will work but I'd prefer not to go that route.
I'm not expecting freebies, just let me know what you have!

I actually have quite a few rim brake type hoops.

Didn't want to start a completely new thread for this so hope its OK posting here.

I recently bought a used 12sp XTR cassette.  The spacer between the 4th and 3rd last cog did unfortunately not come with it.

Apparently the 12sp SLX and Deore cassettes use the same spacer just in a different position.

Also its not the same as the HG (11 spd) spacers since it need to fit on the microspline freehub body and is thinner than the old HG spacers.

Any chance someone have one of these for me?

Maxxis High Roller 29" tyre. 

The tyre has a plug in the top of the sidewall close to the tread.

Will work perfectly with tubes. 50% life still in it.

Yours to have

Looking for a scrap pedal from which I can extract the eggbeater cage.

Hit a rock at high speed - Crank-Brothers Candy - pedals still working well, so don't want to dump if I can avoid that.

I need a replacement cage -  Hoping someone has an old scrap pedal that I can get the cage assembly from ?

 

[Max Headroom]

will DM you
