I have one lightly used HED H3 571 mm (AKA 650c) clincher front wheel for sale. I only used it on special events in dry weather. This wheel has the newer rim extrusion with thicker hooks at the edges to keep the tyre on at high pressures. Older H3 wheels had minimal hooks at the edges of the rim and had a reputation for looser fitting tyres like the Vredestein Fortrezza blowing off. The thicker hooks correct that problem and this wheel has them. That does make this wheel heavier at 840 grams vs. 796 grams for the original.
HED sells the H3 front wheel for $800:

I'm selling this wheel for $400 plus shipping (if necessary). The wheel is in this photo:

As you can see it doesn't have the latest HED graphics shown here:

However, it does have the latest rim which I think is much more important than the graphics.
