As the title says really... I need a 28 hole / 24" rim for the front of my low pro. BLB can order in an Alex rim (which might do), and a search here turned up a couple of tub rims on SJS but neither of these are quite what I'm after.

I've spotted the Velocity Aerohead 24" which should do the job (and which is used on the Airnimal folding bikes), but I'm having a bit of trouble finding somewhere that will sell the rim without a very long ordering time.

Anyone know where I could pick up either one of these, or something similar?

Oooh it's very close... 32h rather than 28h though. It's been getting better all day though, started out last night thinking they were totally obsolete and now a few choices coming up (though still a bit of a pita to get hold of) :)

Cheers!

Sorry for the bump, thought I'd post in case anyone needed similar in the future.

This place appears to be good for odd sized rims / tyres, though not sure what shipping would be so might be a last point of call:

Managed to find a 24" Velocity Aerohead rim (choice of 520, 540 or 507 ISO) from Airnimal (make folding cycles), ordered through Condor.

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:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
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

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
