I'm working in Tokyo and Taipei next week. I'd like to replace my heavy 20" rims with a set of something nice like 19mm Velocity Fusion x28 spoke, or equivalent. If I'm really lucky, I'd like to find a nice selection of 20" Schwalbe tires and a 20" carbon road fork.

Anyway, figuring Taipei could be cheaper than Tokyo. Anyone have good store recommendations for either towns to find nice rims/tires/forks for 20" ? I have no interest in heavy BMX-style stuff. I've been struggling with oversized rims all along.
