Title: Araya 7L
Post by: Devilock on January 20, 2012, 05:31 PM
Bit of a geeky question but what year were these produced...? Got a mint set i would like to use but need to know so I can build them with the appropriate hubs.
Thanks folks.

I was going to get my red & gold laced to the 7L's but I wasn't sure of the year. I could have the chrome Bulls laced to them...??

Campy Records or campy Star hubs ?. 7B's all day long  ;D

You could try Weinmann 7c's, very similar to Araya's and cheaper. Or grind out the ridge on the 7x's  :daumenhoch:
