Rear wheel for Macianato frame

[Basil.B]

I'm building up a Macinato singlespeed, using parts from my previous bike.
However I need to get a new rear wheel as my old one doesn't fit.
Any recommendations?

I've got a set of spare on one deep v rims. Used but true no dings and have sealed bearings. Silver, any good to you? We could come to a settlement on the cheap side.

no real suggestions but go for a flip flop hub then you can ride either fixed or singlespeed set up

Just found these, bit expensive though.

Those are pretty similar to mine quality wise,had mine a year and have only had to
tweak a couple of spokes since I had them built,good quality wheels are definitely worth it

The best wheels are always hand built.

the macinato takes a 135mm wide rear wheel i think, so normal track wheels are
not gonna fit,you'll need a freehub wheel and singlespeed kit

 

[Basil.B]

No it takes a track standard 120mm rear wheel.

Just noticed, I have been spelling the frame name wrong!

I must resist, I must resist. That is a cracking price

was going off a similar thread over on lfgss, looks like they got it wrong somewhere down the line

I went to Spa Cycles for some handbuilts. Cracking quality at a reasonable price - currently in use on an On-One Pompino.

Just had a look, £160 not bad!

I was going to suggest On-One's own wheels, but they're not listed on the website at the moment. I'd guess they'll come back into stock at some stage, On-One prices and availability seem to change by the hour! I paid £100 for mine (the pair) and they've been excellent so far.

Was thinking of those wheels to be honest, when I ordered the frame.
Look a bit heavy though, fancy something a bit lighter.
I know the bike isn't going to be that light when built though.
