Gipiemme budget track wheels, sharks or coconuts?

Hey Allister. My problem with them is that I do run a front brake, which would be a problem right? I mean, I don't use it all the time, but what's the damage of running a brake on those?

For GBP 100 they are good value with out any real down side except they are not so good if you are going to run a brake on them .

We have some for our kids track bikes and they seem to hold up to a bit of abuse once they have been bedded in and the spokes tightened after 6 or 7 outings.

If I was spending my own money for a fixed wheel road bike they would be near the top of the list .
