Is this suitable? http://www.performancebike.com/bikes...0_20000_400219
Do I need to do anything to it before I can install it? I need tape, tube, and tire obviously.
That's a good wheel and should work well.

Does your 950 have 135mm rear dropout spacing? I'm guessing it does, but it's something hasn't been mentioned yet. If your frame happens to be 130mm and steel, it can be stretched out. (EDIT... forget this post; sorry I thought we were dealing with a rear wheel for some reason. 100mm is the standard spacing for front hubs and forks, so no compatibility issues.)
