A Good Wheelset
 

Hi guys,

So I got a new frame set and a couple other new parts for my fixie, and now I want to upgrade my wheelset (700c x 23)

Any suggestion? My budget is around 300-400.

I am looking for mainly light weight and durable.

I have no problem with custom building, just let me know what hubs, spokes, and rims~

Thanks guys.

P.S. Let me know if you guys are interested in seeing my bike at this moment.:)

We're not.

do you want prebuilt or will you be lacing them yourself?

Most likely gonna ask my mechanic to build em for me.

I'd go h+son tb14 to formula/novatec hubs, 32h/3-cross with Sapim Race spokes and brass nipples.

or velocity a23s with the same.

awesome thanks !

Hey um, for the H plus son rims, Is it compatible with a front brake?

The sidewalls are machined and then the rims are anodized. So they'll brake nicely, but the finish will eventually wear off.

I just ordered some wheels through elegantwheels.net I'm psyched to see them and ride. He seems like a knowledgable guy who makes things of quality.
