Hi forum
I used to ahve BMX with solid disc wheels when I was a kid, and thought it was the coolest looking thing ever.
Now I've grown up and got a road bike, I got to thinking about getting a rear disc wheel for it - purely for aesthetic reasons you understand.
Can anyone recommend me a place I can pick up a comparatively cheap rear wheel - or perhaps even better some clip on discs? (if these exist)
Have been trawling the internet and can only find military-grade carbon discs for £1500+ - now I'M looking for something under the £100 mark... I'm not hugely bothered about the extra weight as a lot of the components on my bike are somewhat substandard, and I'm only a cyclo commuter/enthusiast really...
Also am UK based.
Thanks in advance

A brief glance at their site doesn't say anything about international shipping but they sell 65 gram (their claim) wheel covers.
