What to check before you buy

Used wheels need to be checked for true and for wear. Spin each wheel and watch the rim against the brake pads or frame for wobble, and check rim brake surfaces for a concave wear groove that means the rim is nearly finished. On disc wheels, check the rotor mount and the freehub body for deep notches bitten in by the cassette sprockets. Confirm the axle standard (quick release, 12 mm thru-axle), the freehub type (HG, XD, Micro Spline) and the tyre type the rims are built for, and ask whether tubeless tape and valves are included.
