I live in Encinitas, about 20 miles due west of you. My local LBS, Leucadia Cyclery, sold me a replacement wheel for my son's 1992 Specialized HardRock mountain bike: $50, brand new, stainless steel spokes, sealed bearings, aluminum rim, quick release. Nothing special or high-end, but perfectly serviceable.

As you can read in my signature, I am hard-core retro where bikes are concerned.
