Is there any bike shop or online retailer in europe who sell hed belgium C2 clincher rims?
These are the same rims as the hed ardennes factory wheels and are available to buy separately in the USA

    Can't help re the Hed rims, but if that's your thing, how about the Velocity A23 rim available in the UK?

    I bought mine from Glory Cycles in the states, wheelbuilder.com also slow them.

    They're decent rims. If I was building with them again I'd use lighter hubs than the DA's I used for the current build.

    Also can't help on a UK supplier but fairwheelbikes also stock them.

    Marin Maniac,

    How much did shipping and customs duty come to for those? Thanks!

    I think all I came to about £120 for the pair IIRC.

    Significantly cheaper than buying from the UK distributor.

    Frankly the amount they want for a pair of rims is a blatant piss take.
