SMO 24" :D
$90-100ish they RRP for. A bit heavy, but gees... strong! I rimbashed a few times the other night, as did a few other people :oops: but I only have 2 loose spokes whereas they have flatspots/dings.

would it be possible to e-mail me some pictures of it at jon@mailpuppy.com
got a couple of questions too......
How old is it?
Is it a rear wheel?
Is it a disc hub? Which model formula is it?
And problems with the bearings and pawls i should know of?
Has it been in any stacks which required it to be re-trued?

cheers

Roastin - Go to Brunswick St Cycls, tell them Steve sent you, and get Shane to build up whatever rim you need. He's the best wheelbuilder I've ever come across, and they're the best shop I've ever been into.
