I need a new rear wheel, but it has to be equivalent to an Alex TD20 on a shimano hub...

...This guy ran over my bike, and need a new replacement. He said he would pay for all the damage, but i dont want to rip him off.

Any suggetsions are welcome.

:roll:

Thanks

    I don't know if this an equivalent (probably much better), but Merlin Cycles do excellent handbuilt wheels at very good prices, for example a Mavic XM719 disc rim, with XT hub for £64 (plus post) - you can go down or up from this spec as you wish, but any way you look at it, £64 is no rip off!

    If you do get a better spec wheel than before just think of this as a small compensation for the inconvenience and time involved in being without the bike and soucing the replacement, it is a hassle you could ptrobably have done without.

    thanks for that!

    Merlin seem pretty good. I'm off to the bike shop later to see what they can do, if they want more than i am willng to pay, then they are not getting my custom
