2008 HED Jet 9 C2 clincher rear 24 spoke 700c wheel 90 mm

Frame and Wheel is auctioning a 2008 HED Jet 9 C2 clincher rear wheel on the Frame and Wheel eBay store. The owner of this wheel purchased it new directly from HED in 2008. He rode it once in a time trial and it has been in storage ever since. The wheel has never been crashed. The owner is selling this wheel because he is trying to reduce the amount of unused cycling equipment he owns. The wheel features the new 23 mm wide C2 alloy rim and a 90 mm deep carbon aero fairing that is bonded to the rim. The wheel weighs 2 pounds 6 ounces (1.06 kg). The serial number reads R50-24H-01742 and the product ID reads JETS 0808-056. Shimano/SRAM freehub body. No skewer or valve extender included. Bontrager wheel bag is included. HED notes that JET wheels are suitable for rider weighing less than 190 pounds. The wheel is being sold as is.

Review of condition

The wheel is is in very good condition. It is clean and there are no cracks, dents or scratches in the alloy rim and there are no dents or cracks in the carbon fairing. The stickers are clean and adhere properly. The bearings are smooth and the wheel spins freely, quietly and smoothly. The wheel is round and true and the spokes are tight and straight. Frame and Wheel notes the following. There are some light abrasions on the splines from a freewheel. The braking surface shows very light wear. The pawls are a bit loud. There is a 25 x 5 mm blemish on the non-drive side of the rim. The base tape should be replaced.

Frame and Wheel conclusion

Frame and Wheel’s view is that this wheel is in very good condition and still full of many hours of riding either on a road bike or a time trial bike. The wide rim and the deep dish fairing clearly make this wheel very aerodynamic. This wheel will suit the rider who seeks a practical, versatile and aerodynamic wheel that can be used on a time trial bike for time trials and on a road bike for flat and fast riding. The clincher rim will appeal to many. A great opportunity to obtain a leading brand of high performance racing wheel at a deep discount to retail.
