Please recommend a bick wheelset
Hi. Can anyone recommend a 3-Spock 26" bike wheelset?
I need to replace my bicycle wheels, so please recommend a reliable online shop or brand.
Thank you in advance

So, I thought OP was just drunk, but I googled Spock bick 26 wheelset and this was the first result.

OP will have to go custom if he wants a 3 Spock wheel.

Wait, there's regular Spock, and there's the one with the goatee, from the other universe, but where's the third Spock?
Edit: Just realized that the third Spock must be from the Kelvin timeline.

Are the 3 Spock 26" available for 7 speed ?
I am contemplating a vintage mountain bike conversion to road.
And want it to be uniquely Spocked.
Take me to Wallymart, bicycle component supplier to the world.
Too bad they withdrew from parts of the PNW.

And I agree! Plus the lookup corrected the spelling errors - "Spock" / "Spoke"
