Cleaning House .... Shimano Nexus 8 Speed Red Band Wheelset

I'm clearing my garage space for more projects. One project I just never got around too was making an internally geared bike. Oh well.

If anyone is interested, this wheelset is quite nice. The rims are double walled, 700c, 36h, stainless spokes with indicator stripe. The hub works great, and I believe the spacing is 132mm, although you can shave several millimeters off by using a slimmer locknut. Basically, this means you can put this thing on modern road bikes, all year mountain bikes, and vintage road frames with a slimmed down locknut and some minor re-spacing of the rear dropouts.

Here's the ebay listing:

Moving Blogs...sort of

Things have slowed on this blog - most content is going to a new address - Lugsbugs.blogspot.com .

I'll eventually separate the content of the two - this blog will be about building and refurbishing bikes, that one will be more about actual Touring and Riding topics. But for now, that blog is where most of my content is going..

See you over there!
