Folks,
I have a pair of large flange 36 hole track hubs front and rear that I am looking to build up but thanks to the joys of the modern metric world we live in I am having a struggle to find any reasonable/good quality new/second hand 27" rims. Only cheap town bike tat available new in the UK, and Ebay hasn't had much for a while. The US still makes reasonable rims new but shipping is a killer. . .
Anybody got any? I either need 2 x 36hole rims or would consider full wheelsets if thats all there is..
After some Wolber, Mavic quality rims ideally but lets see what ya got!
Before it's suggested - have I considered just using 700c's and a long drop brake? yes and it looks a bit pants, so if I can do it properly i'd like to. . .
Cheers, Steve
