People, what do you think of this? i mentioned earlier i was doing a conversion to a single speed and now im thinking of making it fixed so i was looking at budget wheels. Will it be alot easier for me to align the chainline if i get a track wheel? its not a track bike so i imagine ill still have too use spacers or some such device? sorry if these questions seem ridiculous, i've read so much information over the last few days my mind boggles.

Second dibs on saddle if it's not a goer.

Thanks, i'll get reading.

Also, does anybody know where i can buy the rubber bit at the top of the brake lever? no idea what they are called but mine are wrecked and i'd like some new ones.

Hi guys, im new too this forum so be gentle.

Basically i need some advice, im building my first singlespeed conversion ive not forked out for an expensive wheel and im now suffering the consequences.

i need too know how to align the chainline, i know this will probably seem like a common query but its starting to wind me up.

How do i measure how far out it is?

Can i use some kind of spacer situation? if so what?

As you can probably tell, im pretty much a novice so any help would be much appreciated.

thanks in advance
