BradJohnson Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Hi all im looking into buying a new rear wheel as mine isnt to good, how much should i be spending on a 26" rear wheel. Could you help me choose one ? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Tartybikes have got a ready built Echo TR hub and rim deal for £101, I had the same build on my old bike and it's spot on for the money really. A decent hub and pretty strong rim combo but if you've got a bit more to spend I'd stick with the TR hub and get a Trialtech rim laced to one, which is what I'm currently using!

BradJohnson Posted February 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 i saw that wheel but i didnt know weather it was too cheap for a trials wheel, ive only been riding a few months and dont really know much about wheels.

isitafox Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 No it's definately a good deal, I only changed as I changed frames and the wheel I had wouldn't fit, then changed again so needed a new build and with the money I had available I went for the Trialtech. The TR rim was good and strong for me, especially for starting out again and holds a grind very well I found! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben John - Hynes Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Depends on whether you have a FFW or a freehub? Obviously that'll affect the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Think he's currently running a freehub, but it's a perfect excuse for going FFW if you ask me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
