Hi

Does anyone know were I can get a wheel set with a flip flop hub 48x18 fixed 46x16 freewheel something like they have on the off the shelf singel speed/fixed bikes.

I have a set of Mavic Open Sport rims on DT (I think ) spokes but the Spesh hubs are worn, so I could use these wheels with new hubs but I have never did a wheel build and I know I would have to redish the rear wheel.

I like the style of the track hub look so maybe some Dura Ace or some blue colur coded you get the idea.

    will have what you need Dura-Ace 7600 (the best looking big flange hub) are £123 for the double sided rear and std. front. They also have the Suzue sealed bearing ones too for about £70 ish. prob. only in 32 or 36 drilling though.
