wheel question v. flip flop
hey everyone!
so last year i dug a cannondale roadbike out of my parents attic, and lately i decided im going to try and turn it into a single gear..
ive been looking at buying a flip flop wheel so maybe later i could switch to a fixie if i decide to.. i really like the deep v velocity wheels (i think thats what theyre called) but im not so happy with the price.. are there any other good brands that sell sturdy wheels or should i just fork over the cash and go with the velocity wheels?
im doing this just as a kind of side project to learn a little more about bikes.

You will find more info over on the SS-Fixed gear forum for your project. I found most of my components on ebay when I built a single speed last year.
