I've never ridden fixed really before, but I'm building a FGTTB for fun. When looking for a rear wheel is there anything in particular I should be looking for? I'm on a bit of a budget, and I'm a very, er, modest time triallist, so I suspect I should just get a cheap wheel and see how it goes.
Also, any tips on gearing? I ride 45/18 around town. No idea about tt. I see big scary numbers chucked about on here. Is there a rule of thumb?
