Firstly Welcome!

Those rims were sold a few years ago, they are the original Zipp rim now called the 303 (and it's now a lot lighter).

Unless you are getting a really good deal on them, I wouldn't buy them.

Ye Olde Balde One,thanks for the prompt reply.
Do you think I can build it up to a sub 1200g wheelset with
am classic hubset+DT revolution spokes?Do you know about the quality of the rims?I heard that the older zipp carbon wheelset have lots of problems....don't know if it's their hubs or rims?
The guy is selling them for $150 a pair...good price?I thinking of replacing them

with my mavic kysrium sl......trying to get my the weight of my ride down.
Thanks.
