Have upgraded to Flo 30's & 60's & now want to sell the two following wheel sets:

Bontrager Aero Lite (2010).

Oval Concepts Aero 535 (2013).

Both in stellar condition &, to use the cliche, "bullet-proof" never needed truing. What do you think I should price them at?

Thanks for your input.

You can buy the Bontragers brand new for $300, so $150-175 depending if you include tires, tubes, cassette or if you're only selling the wheels. That is of course if they are in good shape (clean brake track and true).

The going price from the Oval's seems to be $250.

If you don't have a trainer wheel, I would consider keeping the Bontragers (you can always sell only the front)….

Bump: Taking a second internet search, $250 for Ovals? Seems pricey seeing that they only seem available on ebay.

When they were available from retailers, the going price was around $250. eBay is a great resources for looking at recently sold and get an idea of what they will go for.

Thanks again. Just realizing that winter may affect demand.
