So I'm toying with the idea of building up a second bike as cheaply as I possibly can, all I need for a new build out of my parts bin is a new wheelset. I don't know if I can afford it but I thought I'd see if anybody had anything cheap available.
The requirements are:
700c front and rear,
Machined front, doesn't matter about the rear
Fixed rear
Preferably clinchers
Preferably black.

Cheers mate! I'll have a little think about it, I'd probably prefer clinchers though to be honest.

Buy my front wheel? Shimano 600 hub and mavic ma3 rim for £15?

I've got a pair of wheels from my Fuji track 2008. Hardly used as I upgraded pretty quickly. Black rims, silver hubs and spokes. Rear braking surface has been painted matt black, but would easily come off with some solvent (it's like poster paint!).

Hubs are flip/flop, with track nuts included. Even got a pressed steel 16t sprocket to throw in!

Make me an offer, I just need to space.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
