Another BC wheel question

NKahler · 2007-08-15T21:39:11+00:00

I just got back from the bike store, and they said i can have a 16" 14mm wheel for $22 and the tire and tube for $10, And im gonna put my pegs on it, Is this good? Or should i try to find some cheaper stuff? And i think the wheel is pretty good -- NKahler ______________________________ Check out some of my stuff! 😄 http://nkahler.deviantart.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NKahler's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/15277 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/63491 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com

I'd try and find a 20 inch myself, but i just noticed that you're 14 so
depending on how short you are, 16 should be fine.

I'd definitely try and make plates for it, pegs aren't all that fun.

Its not just easier to ride a bc with plates but it makes so much more

if you can cut and drill you can make plates out of 'this'
