Saw these in a neighbors garage. He had 2 sets of bike wheels for $85 a set and some motorcycle repair mats new for $25. Are these good deals. Garage saleale is tomorrow A.M.

Looks like a good deal for general use. Amazon has them for $235 a set for 700c wheels.
Amazon.com: Vuelta Zerolite Pro 700c Road Bike Wheelset: Sports & Outdoors If I had the cash, I'd get them. |

I don't think the Nashbar set is the same as the items for sale, but the Cycle Club Sports are. Regardless, Amazon's are overpriced. The seller is still asking for less than all three stores though.

i think his pics are Zerolite comps? I can't really see it. For 30-40 bucks difference, I rather not buy used. Unless you know the owner.

$85 then ship to me? Nah, like you said, rather buy new for $40 more plus shipping. Now, if the seller was local...

They are brand new and he would sell me both sets for $100, I don't have a road bike so I really don't have a need for them.

I'd be interested in those motorcycle mats, but my guess is that it would be impractical to ship them. If not, let me know.
Thanks Craig. JA

What the heck, I walked down there and bought mats and wheels. The mats are a 3'x6' and 2 ea. 2'x6', if you want them Jandrews I can ship them.
The wheels are a set for road bike and a set for a "fixie". Fixie wheels  Road wheels  Mats

Thanks Craig!! I could really use those mats!! I have three bikes that would fit perfectly on them in my garage! I'm just worried that shipping would make it not worthwhile. Any idea?
Thanks!! JA

PM me your address. UPS picks up from work, I can bundle the boxes and find out a shipping cost. I ended up paying $20 for all 3.

Just bumping this back up. Wheels are spoken for but the mats are still up for grabs if Jandrews doesn't want them. $250 worth of new mats for $20.
