Okay well in that case they may be an addition at a later date if i happen to come across a reasonably priced set, for the time being i've found myself a pair of useable 26" wheels from the back of the shed!
Next question, gearing... In your experience what's a reasonable ballpark gear ratio to run? Obviously taking into account that for the forseeable future i'm going to be on 26's. This doesn't need to be a flying machine, and has to contend with a (semi) hilly commute, as well as my general lack of fitness...
Will be running a 52 tooth sprocket. (not that his has any bearing on the ratio of course)
Thanks again
