26" fixed?
I can't find a prebuilt 26" wheel. Preferably something that can take the abuse of a mtb (currently running singlespeed w/o tensioner)
Any recommendations? My google-fu is poor on this subject and I can't find one to save my life.
I don't have the skill/ knowledge/ whatever else you need to build one.

Ugh, you're completely right. I'm sure youtube will show me exactly how to do it. I was just hoping that I wouldn't have to.

Surly Fixxer. Costs less than building a 26" fixed wheel.
