WTB: NOS 385MM M-Tech 1

[austin_caccavo]

Hey all - as the title suggests, I'm in search of an NOS/NIB 385mm M-Tech 1 wheel. Not interested in a 370mm or non-factory rewrap; however, I would consider a properly refinished or lightly used unit.

Thanks in advance!

Ha! Yeah that's a bit steep. I submitted an offer for $1,200 (which seems reasonable) but it was declined. Onward!

why do you want the 385?
it will make the steering slower

How does that make the steering slower? There is no change in lock-to-lock. You will lose leverage with smaller steering wheel but gain more interior space. Just like if you change to a smaller diameter tire. The smaller tire will need to turn more to catch up and your wheel ratio all change.

The only way to make the make the steering quicker is to have a quick rack.

Feel free to correct me.
