I picked up a NOS set of primavera wheels at a swap meet yesterday and I'm trying to find more info about them. Like did I make a mistake?
They are box section rims (not aero), 24 radial front, 28 rear, DS 2X, NDS radial, DT aerolite spokes on some anonymous (no markings) black sealed bearing hubs. I disassembled the rear hub and it seems to be fairly well engineered. I was a little surprised by the amount of drag the seals have but every other hub I've ever had was cup and cone so I'm not really familiar with this new fangled sealed cartridge bearing stuff. They are light, 1450g for the pair.
It seems that "Cicli Primavera" has disappeared without a trace. The domain name has a squatter page on it now (thanks Network Solutions! NOT) and googling Eric Prima turned up nothing useful
So, anyone know anything else about these wheels, like if they will stay together or if I can get spare parts?
Thanks!
