  1. FS: pair of Zipp 440s w/ Conti sprinters.

    Front: 24 bladed spokes built w/ Zipp hub.
    Rear: 28 spokes built w/ Ultegra hub.

    Not sure exactly what model the rims are, I'm not the original owner.
    Good condition.

    Tires are nearly new, no noticeable wear, no nicks or cuts. Used for
    3 crits, two road races, and two omniums on the track.

    Yes, you read it right: two omniums on the track. I used a
    hub-converter to turn the Ultegra hub into a fixed gear hub for two
    days on the track. The reason I initially bought these wheels was to
    allow for just that sort of flexibility - built for stiffness instead
    of ultimate light weight, and w/ a rear hub that I could convert to
    fixed gear when I wanted to.

    These wheels are especially nice for a larger rider, as they are very
    stiff due to the spoke count.

    Asking $350, including shipping, for wheels/tires. No skewers or
    cassette. Hub converter not included.

    email directly, please.
