hi all
first of all i'll say hi, been riding a ss roadie for a while now and thinking about the idea of going fixed.
i'm looking for a fixed back wheel and was thinking about trying to build my own. i've pretty much narrowed the hub choice down the system ex as it seems to be decent quality and cheap for a first build. what rims would people recommend, cheapish and good quality?
secondly, does anyone know where i can find rim and hub dimensions to calculate spoke length, and also if there are any decent online shops selling spokes?
sorry for all the questions in my first post.
thanks
mike
