It's never too soon to start thinking about cyclocross!

I have four Presto Velo team wheelsets remaining for purchase. All have been used for CX, are mounted with tubular cyclocross tires and include a decent Shimano 105 12-25 cassette.

• Easton EC90/Dugast Rhino/105 Cassette. Wheelset has seen one road season and one CX season. Minor cosmetic scratches from transport/storage. Edges of tire tread peeling up in a couple of places. Hubs and rims are in excellent condition and suitable for road use: $750

• Shimano Dura Ace C50 (prototype)/Fango/105 Cassette. Very light. Wheelset has seen two road seasons and two CX seasons. Rear wheel's drive side sidewall was damaged by some rocks at DoubleCross this fall and repaired by Ruckus. The logo stickers are messed up and brake track is somewhat uneven in repaired areas. Rear tire has a flat spot from grabbing. Front wheel and tire in excellent condition. Hubs on both wheels are exceptional: $500

The following two sets have seen a lot of action and are priced accordingly. They work great for cyclocross and provide a good way to get into a lightweight, aero tubular setup:

• Easton EC90/Fango/105 Cassette. 6 road/CX seasons? Brake track was re-scrimed by Ruckus after getting fried at Bend's nats. Cosmetically a bit rough. Bearings seem fairly smooth and wheels are true and otherwise in very usable condition for CX: $350

• Easton EC90/Fango/105 Cassette. 6 road/CX seasons? Brake track was re-scrimed by Ruckus after getting fried at Bend nats. Cosmetically a bit rough. Rear wheel is a bit out of true. Bearings seem fairly smooth and wheels are otherwise in very usable condition for CX: $350

Contact me if you want to have a look.

Bontrager Race X-Lite Carbon tubulars. One owner, only raced on (probably about 2000miles). Asking $1000, with tires (Vittoria CX in front, Conti Sprinter in rear), and 10spd 11-23 DA cassette, plus a set of wheel bags:

Description
Rims are a very slippery 44mm tall and made using Tour de France tested, OCLV technology 16 hole front and rear, utilizing PST and 26mm spacing results in the lightest possible rim design; special glass embedded braking surface for added durability
Dura-Ace carbon brake pads are recommended.
Hubs are Swiss made, fully serviceable, triple sealed, cartridge bearing design; system uses aluminum axles and a star ratchet system in the rear
Torque sharing, oversized, rear hub shell more effectively transfers torque to left side resulting in less wind up and a longer lasting wheel
Spokes are butted and bladed stainless steel, as light as a DT Revolution, but 20% stronger; J-bend type spoke design allows for replacement with any standard 14g spoke in a pinch
Bontrager Race X-Lite titanium skewers included
