Cane Creek Volos Tubular Wheelset w/ Grifo 32s Shimano

Rad tubular wheelset with cross tires.  $350 plus actual shipping. $10 will go to the forum. In Chicago and local pick-up preferred, but will ship.

I think these are the Volos road model from Cane Creek, Shimano compatible.  These were the team wheelset for the Richard Sachs cross team 4 or 5 years ago.  I bought them from Sachs himself 2 years ago (I think they were new, or at least rebuilt with new rims), glued on a new set of Grifo 32s, raced them twice, and they’ve been sitting on my porch since.  Full disclosure: the porch is not heated, but is fully enclosed and has heated rooms on two sides.
More photos...

I aquasealed the sidewalls and they seem fine, with just a bit of grease and heel rub on the rear.  I put 60psi in the tires and they’ve held air well for 2 days.  Just a bit dirty is all.  Some slight notching to the freehub (white stuff in photo is grease), but otherwise they are straight and the bearings are awesomely smooth.

Did some more research and found they weigh 1600 grams or a bit less, and with more rotating weight at the hub vs the rim, they ride much lighter and spin up fast.  Very stiff and responsive. 24 radial spokes in front, 28 in back, 2x on drive side, and radial on non-drive.

The tires are well-attached, but they should really be reglued.  I’ll include 3 unopened tubes of Mastik One to get you going.  Also have some extra spokes and nipple wrench. Skewers includes as well.

Get a perfect alloy cyclocross wheelset for a good price.

Cheers,
