ok. am building a beater, and pretty much I just need a rear wheel ath the moment. I can build my own wheels so am looking for rims and/or hubs (ive seen a potentially cheap 32h and 36h on ebay)
dont mind if its 32 or 36 rim. 700c rim, 120mm ish hub. flip flop (fixed free ) would be amazing.
im looking to spend very little money on it. obviously i dont want the rim to be buckled to shit or the hub to roll like its got gravel for bearings. however weight, style, age, looks, scratches doesnt bother me in the slightest. i still want the bike to have the ability to go and stay fast. (i dont mind having to put more power in to get speed, but i dont want to have to keep putting power in cos the bearings are shit).
wont say no to a tire either. I dibsed one a few days ago on freecycle but I reckon thats gone already.
I have alot of bmx bits n' bobs to trade with if that interests people.
beer would ensue.
