I am rebuilding a 1950s Hercules Kestrel in a retro style (not a faithful resto).
I want some retro style flip flop wheels to go on it and could do with some advice on what to get.
ebay seems to have plenty of flip flop wheels from modern track style to 27*1.25 chrome over alloy, so there are lots of options.

I am not too bothered about 27" v 700c, I just want decent rims and hubs in a "classic" style alloy rim, reasonably light weight for £100 or less.

any recommendations?

Miche Primato hubs. You may want box section rims possibly silver. Mavic open pro are semi box/aero. Over 100 for a build though.

Depends how retro. Custom built can get you there with silver components and no aero rims
