The rear wheel is a rigida rim with a campag avanti hub with 8-speed cassette. Is it possible to use that wheel? Is it as easy as taking the casette off and replace with a sprocket (and re-space and re-dish)?
I do think I would like a flip flop set up first to get used to single speed work.
I will have a look in the classifieds for a rear wheel. Thinking of 48T in the front and something like 18/16 for the flip flop. Or anyhing else that gets to that combo.
Feel free to send info to me...
What are good wheels to begin with?
Cheers
Dennis
