Hey Guys... What do you think is the value of a HED Belgium wheelset...good shape...tubular...HED Sonic hubs...bladed spokes...Shimano 11s FHB (brand new)...HED "factory build".

TIA

Used? $400. I wouldn't pay more, given that the hubs say HED on them.

well basically that's a HED Ardennes build, but for tubulars. Those typically go in the range of $800-1400, depending on what hubs you get, which rims, how many spokes, etc... i know many don't rate the HED hubs too highly but I don't have any stories to tell of them blowing up or wearing out in one season or anything. so I'd say if you're below the $800 mark it's a decent deal. assuming brand new. i'd have to research the actual hubs, spokes, etc to say for sure though.

John...Do you think $300 is a good enough deal to pursue, even given your HED hub experience(s)???

I would probably try to find a FHB swap for Campy, in the end.
