Casually seeking a used set of wheels, ideally under $400. Would love something like the Velocity Atlas/Cliffhanger + Shimano Deore hub sets that's currently sold out on Riv, but I'm open to others. Try me!

Hi Sofie,

I’m not the seller, but this wheelset was recently posted to the list.

Sophie,
I have a wheelset off of my Clem that I'd like to sell.  Rainbow nipples, 650B Alex rims (the stock wheels for a Clem), Deore hubs.  The cassette is Sunrace 11-34.  $200 plus shipping sounds good.  Also, a set of Schwalbe Big Ben 2.0 tires are mounted on the wheels now with tubes which I'd sell if you decide you want the wheels (extra $35).

I'm north of Seattle (98236 zip) and if you're in the NW, I could meet you in Seattle...not sure where you are.

I have exactly what you need, I think.  

I just sold a barely used Yves Gomez.  I had hoped to move all the parts over to a larger Gomez, but it looks like that's not going to happen.  So, I have the wheelset available.  I bought these new from Riv, and they've seen 200-300 miles of use.  They are Velocity Synergy rims on Deore hubs, functionally identical to the Rivendell $360 budget wheelset.  I'm looking for $225 plus shipping.

Thank you so much to all of you for your kind offers. Thanks to this list, I am soon to be all set with a new to me pair of wheels!
