Find out which has the lowest rake. No, we won't google that for you

If you trade your front wheel for a fork, what will you use for a front wheel?

I think you should trade your computer for some books instead.

This thread is a classic example of the typical BFFGSS gazing that causes new members to not stick around. I love it. Keep up the good work guys.

I'd trade it for
a- 700c carbon fork by fuji track

Make sure the windsor has a 1n1/8th steerer diameter though so the fork fits right.

i think ssfg does this to a person. i tried clarifying things but lost it by page 2.

rim+spokes+hub=wheel
2(wheel)=wheelset

what part of the equation are we discussing?

im going to be the nice guy and say get the fuji carbon fork. seems like the most quality thing offered to you so far. make sure it fits your frame.

that said, i don't understand why you want to trade. do you just want to bling out your bike and performance has nothing to do with the trade?

this was a hilarious thread to read though.

Trade you wheel for cash. Cash is more useful than those other things listed.

The other things that people are offering you are crap anyway, except maybe the IRO wheelset...but that may be crap, too.

Remember, you don't HAVE to trade the B43 wheel. Ask for cash and wait for someone to come up with enough cash to buy it.

Relax.

I know this is really poorly done but I'm bored/had to. Some of y'all with real editing skillz and more time on your hands can fix this/make it bigger.
