bikeperson45 Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 Right, my rear wheel's pretty much dead so really need a new one. I don't have much money (at the moment £60) so anybody know any cheap ones? I've looked on tarty but they've only got one rear one. Would a cheaper MTB wheel suffice for trials?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam-Griffin Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 you tryed looking on for sale as theres always one going cheapYeah this is true, N.Wood had a deng freehub on an Echo (?) Rim for sale not long ago, think he was after about £50 ? Other than that, Prawn had a Hope XC hub on some form of rim for £50 aswell, have a little look in the fs section before buying some cheap shit.

Ben John-Hynes Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 Last year I got a Pro2 wheel for £65.. All you need to do is be patient and the right thing will come along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossMcd Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 I have an echo rim on a dmr revolver hub (and monty freewheel) Ill sell you for 60 posted the rim has only had 1 light grind and is perfectly true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebelistic Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 If your hub is ok then why not just get a new rim - assuming it's the rim that is dead.Swapping a rim is not as tricky as you might think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeperson45 Posted January 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 I'm crap at anything, let alone changing wheel.It has a vertical buckle, but it seems okay at the moment so now I'll wait around a while and hope for an amzing deal.Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
