Cheap wheels required, urgent!

[Korszun]

I have a 1994 Marin Rocky Ridge which is in good functional condition and my son has taken a shine to it. We stripped it down together today and began to build it back up. All is fine except it needs a new wheelset. It only has one of the originals which is nice but is a little buckled and has a loose spoke so would really need to be rebuilt - no point in doing this unless I have both methinks.

So unless someone has a rear form this bike (32h Ritchey Rock 415 on black LX 7sp with purple nipples) then i'm going to buy another set to get him going. So does anyone have something with STX/STX RC/LX hubs, nice condition, with skewers, straight and need no work from around '93-'95?

We're hoping to finish the build next weekend (22nd-23rd March) so he can have a go on it properly set up!

cheers

I've got some Bontrager BCX-3 rims on STX rear/Kona front hubs.

If they sound suitable I'll see what kind of condition they are in for you?

Hi, yeah anything like that if they're good. Can you send pics after you've inspected?

Having had a quick look, they need a bit of maintenance and the cassette body doesn't sound good at all!! I do have a half decent pair of Scott branded rims on Exage hubs but they are a bit earlier than your build, although they would be cheap.

Hmm, thanks for looking and getting back to me so quickly. The Scotts aren't exactly right but could be a good backup if nobody else is able to help.

Thanks again

No problem Paul, they're not going anywhere at the moment so give me a shout if you need to

Anyone? When I say cheap, up to £50 plus post is my budget.

Cheers
