The cost of a rear wheel for my MTB

[Bryony]

Took my Giant Revel 2 into my LBS last week because basically the rear wheel had had it! I get a phone call a few days later saying they have got me a used reconditioned wheel. When I went in to pick it up I couldn't believe my ears when they told me how much it was going to cost me..................................




........... One of my homemade cinnamon and vanilla cakes!! Bargain!

Did they state what size?

A muffin size is a good deal, the full on sponge cake with filling is asking a bit too much!

No good for a bike wheel though and the cream would squeeze out when you brake .

Would it not depend on the wheel? Muffin for town bike , a sponge cake for a 29er.

It is quite a beast, probably weighs more than my rear wheel!!
