What on earth is that front wheel? I've never seen anything like it. I assume it is quite rare or there would be one on every hipsters fixie.

This is my dream bike. I would love to own a 'Nago track bike but can't seem to find one anywhere. Any 'Nago's sized 53-55cm out there?

 

Top of my NEEDS list followed by a Cinelli.

Hi Guys & Girls!

 

I have a nice rear hub lying about at home for a track disk wheel. The Mavic disk itself is pretty busted up and I am not keen in patching it up as wheel balancing becomes an issue. 

 

 

Anyone know of someone who would be able to build me a new rear disk?
