A pair of wheels has come to me and I cannot identify them. Hubs are made by a company called "Roval". They appear to have sealed bearings (though I can't be sure because I haven't opened them yet). Direct-pull, flat-bladed spokes. Front wheel is radially-laced with 18 spokes and rear is 1x-laced with 32. Rims are sew-up, an odd cross between box and deep-v. Freewheel hub; rear wheel looks offset just enough for 5 cogs. No maker ID on rim. They're weird and funky in an esoteric old-school sorta way. Does anyone know anything about these?
