Just about any wheel will work on the front. That isn't a bad deal.

Also look in Craigslist under parts. Or if you have a local bike co-op. But the deal looks good.

The sewups are very quick and easy to swap tires with a flat, but actually patching them is a major pain. New tire sealants may have levelled the playing field a bit. However, I don't think I'd choose a bike with one sewup, and one clincher.

BTW, take come closeup photos of your front hub. It is quite possible that there will be people on this board that would do a straight across trade for your old wheel.

Where are you located?
