Post your orphan rims... maybe we can arrange a trade?

I'm sure many of us have more than one rims that don't quite make a pair. I sure do. I'd love to trade away one or two of these in return for one that will complete a pair. So what I'd suggest is: list what you have. Let's see if we can't make a pair somehow.

Mavic MA2, 36h, polished silver, 700c (622mm) (this is the one I'd like to find a match for)
Sun CR18, 36h, polished silver, 700c (622mm)
Sun ME14A, 36h, silver, 700c (622mm)
Weinmann A129 ("concave"), 48h, silver, 700c (622mm)
Salsa Delgado Cross, 32h, black, 700c (622mm)

Dunlop Special Lightweight, 32h, chrome, EA1 (597 mm)

I have 5 sets of tubulars and a set of Weinmann Concave rims. I believe they are 700c (all of the tubulars are, obviously, 700c). All 36 hole. Whoever wats to pay for shipping, can have them.

33? That must make for an interesting wheel build.

Nice idea.

I've got a single Rigida AL-1320, 36H, 700c clincher rim. It's actually a complete wheel with an ATOM front hub. Happy to trade rim or complete wheel for something other than another rim, as I don't currently have a need for rims.

Drool. What are they? Now if someone would say "I have a box full of NOS Tubulars. Whoever wats (wants) to pay for shipping, can have them"......

Just went through the storage unit and found way too many wheels/rims. Some have matching hubs but not rims. I may have to go down there and take inventory!

They're probably pretty corroded by now.

@rhm, I have a 32h MA3 rim in black. I've been looking for a match, but maybe you should take this instead, for your other 32h black rim. What is Salsa Delgado Cross, anyway? Oh, never mind. I found it on google images, and my Mavic is a decent match for it.

No, I don't need a pair of 32h rims; but if you want my Salsa, that's fine.

I happen to have a Matrix Titan II front wheel clincher - dark anodizing that I just took off the Trek 1100 that I bought this weekend. Spokes are stainless, the hub and quick release are Sansin. Need to be clean, and the anodizing shows light breaking wear. No wear in the aluminum. I have the matching Rear wheel with stainless spokes, but it's bent and cracking at the seam. Sansin rear hub had a 7-speed suntour freewheel on it.

Would be interested in a trade for wheel or wheels with Ultegra, 105, RX100 or RSX 7 or 8 speed hubs for cassettes. Open as to the brand of the rims, and I'd take hard anodized or silver color.

Or make cash offer if no wheels for trade.
