I'm intending to build my own wheels for my fixie project and I know it's probably not the done thing here at CC, but I'm desperate to have a go at getting this done for zero quid......

I have a rear hub, (a spare MTB one - hope this'll work!) but I'm needing some rims, and some spokes......the spokes I'll probably have to buy, but if anyine has some rims they'd like to donate I'd be more than happy to endlessly quote their names forevermore, for their kind help in getting me started on a fixed....

I can travela moped's distance from Littlehampton to collect!:ohmy:

Oh, if you're gonna put a price on it - don't tell Joe24/montage.....:evil:

I've a Rigida rim you can have....700c - fairly chunky, will take anything from a 28mm to a 35 mm tyre, but pretty light considering. Pick up from Eastleigh, Hants FOC, or mail at cost (prob £6 - £7)

It's a good point, and one which I hadn't considered. I do have the original wheels on the peugeot, which have knackered rims, and if I had to use these hubs, it'd give me a choice of a couple more which may match.....:biggrin:

If not, then I'll have to think of another way....! :biggrin:
