WTB - Suntour Superbe or SSP Clincher 700c Wheelset
I recently snagged a Vogue road bike from Japan with a full Superbe / Superbe Pro groupset on it, minus wheels. I'm looking for a clincher 700c wheelset with Superbe hubs. Superbe Pro is preferred; I'd like to try to get a 7-speed freewheel on there so I figure it needs to have 126 or 128mm O.L.D. I'd like to the rims to match. Prefer silver rims over anodized but not a dealbreaker if ano. Tires are not needed.
if you've got what I'm looking for, please send me a private message or contact me at skpearson at gmail dot com.
thanks!

start looking for 1985 Trek 660S with Superbe pro group (usually campy is red, superbe were green). Buy the bike and part it out or see if seller will part it out. You could ask what this bike has.....
https://denver.craigslist.org/bik/d/...717680216.html
I have three Superbe Pro set up bikes, working on a 3rd track one. (Trek 736, Trek 660S, 3Rensho Super Export).
so I am always looking around for them. Note: as soon as you get a set, they will come out of the wood work. I have done better buying bikes then individual components.
