Haha. I'll take that as a no.

Does switching to 165mms really make that much difference? The budget for the build is gradually getting out of control and I was hoping to stick with my 175mm Shimano 600 crankset. Whaddayareckon?

Can anyone recommend a good quality and value wheel builder in london? How much can I expect to be paying for a set? Ta!

Well damn I thought there might be a Velocity backlash in the offing.
I have a campy atlanta road wheelset with lovely deep rims but can't get the hubs to make em fixed... can you get Shamal rims with 36 holes?

They look pretty sweet but I can't find them for 36 hole hubs and theigh weigh in pretty hefty. 575g! I guess the deep vs aint exactly lightweights.

The velocity deep vs? Yeah I see on the BLB site they're @ £37 a pop. The CXP33s are @ £31.50 on parker international. Has anyone seen the silver deep v's? Are they tacky looking?

Thanks for the tips. CXP33s look good but aint cheap. Best I get saving.

Morning all!
So I'm building up my first fixed. Very excited. all the bits are in place save for rims. I have a nice set of record 36 hole hubs. Any recommendations? CXP 22s look great buy I've never seen silver ones, and that's what I want! Any suggestions appreciated...
Cheers dears.

What time critical mass start? Trafalgar?

Well I'm headed for my first fixed and have 2 singlespeeds that are being cannabalized so a set would be ideal. I'm all up for some bargaining here...!

I have a sugino 75 set with 175 cranks and a 48t ring if you're interested. I could do with a wheel build...

So whaddaya reckon? I'm riding singlespeed right now on a colombus fondriest frame. Can I switch to a rear wheel with 110mm hubs by squeezing the rear stays some? Or am I going to have to throw down for a track frame to go fixed?

Any opinions on the off the peg dolan track bike ribble are doing right now. Seems a good deal. What's the catch?

Anyone have any opinions on the Dolan off the peg track bike Ribble are doing. Seems like a pretty good deal. What's the catch (apart from it taking an age to be delivered)?
