New wheels in London...

yeah the rims are £42 or something, £30 for the hub, & the rest goes of spokes, nips & wheel building and a Breaking surface (as i ride singlespeed) Not bad for a back wheel.
Hope it lasts 6years or even half of that i'll be a happy customer.

Ok... Real Noob question... When i go to collect the wheel and have it fitted.
whats the best way of getting that spare wheel back home on the bike?
should i just carry the dam thing back or somehow connect the wheel to my chrome?
dont want to cause a accident..

strap it to your bag easy peasy.

Sorry for the new thread, but I'm on the train and my search fu is weak right now. Going to be in Central London today, and I could really do with a new fixed wheelset, or at least a rear wheel/hub. Which places would be best to check out for half decent second hand parts with the limited time I have available?

Alternatively, if you have anything suitable and can meet up, offers welcome!

Google search: lfgss.com + London bike shops brought up this:

https://www.lfgss.com/shops.html

Your best bet is to pick up the phone and call the shops to see what they've got in stock.

The obvious ones in Central London are:

• condor
  
• kinoko
  
• fitzrova
  
  

BLB is the only shop I can think of that has 2nd hand parts

Also you should post in the mods thread and ask for this to be moved to classifieds > wanted

It's not really a wanted ad, I'm after information. I'm aware of the map, but I don't have the sort of data and battery available to hunt through all those listings to find out which ones might suit my purpose. Hence I was hoping someone who knows as such could point me to which shops are good for second hand bits, because I couldn't find a thread that did the same

Will try BLB though, it's near enough to my train home

Second hand wheels in central London? Good luck.
