DJR Posted June 21, 2019 Share -Hi im looking for fixed gear wheel specifically the back one (40mm deep section or send a pic of what you've got) -Im also looking for fixie or SS crank Regards Aadam.Look at the track bike ads in the classifieds. Trouble is that they are often tubbie wheels and that is not ideal for an every day ride fixie. Clinchers will be better and easier to fix in case of punctures. Good ones are often also pretty expensive, especially deep section ones. Possibly your best bet is to buy new from someone like Rook Cycles in Cape Town. They have very decent fixed / flip flop wheels on Novatec hubs and for a reasonable price too. https://rookcycles.com/ They have a great sale on a.t.m.Not sure where you are based, but sure they will ship for about R100 to anywhere in SA Edited June 21, 2019 by DJR BRAKELESS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJR Posted June 23, 2019 Share The best place in Cape Town to find second hand retro parts will be Woodstock Cycle Works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
