bike build

[grassfly1234]

Hi everyone

I am new to the hub and am not sure if I am posting in the right place?

I am in the proccess of putting together a bike, nothing special or expensive, just something to get around.

I am need of wheels to accomodate V breaks and was thinking of trying to build up a set on my own but am having trouble finding the second hand goods in this department as everything nowdays is disck break setups.. can anyone out there send me in the right direction?

 

Kind regards

New to the hub - Welcome

New to wheel building - Welcome with a bit of good luck!

 

Building a set from scratch will not be cheap, buying is cheaper.

 

You cheapest option will be a steel wheelset that uses a screw-in cog, 7speed. (or SS )

We sell those for around R500 for the set.

 

If you want lighter, you can go alloy, we sell the screw-in sets for around R800.

 

If you want an alloy set with freebody (for a cassette) then you start looking at around R1300 for the set.

 

All new, all v-brake.
