i've got a pair of hardly used milremo 27" wheels - does anyone know it they're any good?....i did a quick search for milremo on the net but didn't find much about them.

Is it worth re-dishing the back wheel to put it on a vintage fixed bike build? - or should i just get a new 27" back wheel made?

Milremo was a brand established by UK importer Ron Kitchin back in the 70s. If I rightly recall it was pretty much low budget stuff. I'd be inclined to get a new wheel.

thanks - i guess i was just hoping they were an amazing find - because of the high flange hubs.

back in the 70's there are loads of hubs that come in large flange... large flange size does not equal to quality and does not equal to track use.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
