I've got a couple of free road wheels and on close inspection the rubber is delaminating on one and the bearing is siezed on the other.
You tend to see wheels for around £25-50 each on ebay, but even then the rubber and / or bearings could be shot. What's the rough cost of refurbishing a wheel with new rubber and a set of bearings? IIRC Richie's re-rubbering was over £50 per wheel and the wheel bearings are an odd size, meaning they cost £50+ per wheel, is that correct, thus what do we reckon the all in cost of turning a rough US wheel into a new one would be? I've got my eye on a set of eight NOS wheels for the Loyd anyway but I wanted to weigh up the costs....
