NEED BRITISH RIMS FOR RETRO BUILD...HELP!

[firestaffman]

just to clarify......

cheers for your help guys, but just to clarify check out my hardtail in the gallery-that's what Im building up-Its a one off built over 10 years ago in Liverpool (seriously!) box section 7005, kinda like a Pace rc250 but a lot sleeker with a longer top tube, dressed up, so far, with Hope, X lite, Middleburn, USE and DMR bits-the brief is a Union Jack theme, the aim is to build the quickest bike across London-lightweight single speed with tough as nails componentry for those step jumps/drop offs etc
The bike is being built up with an aim to support our lot at the Olympics, and showcase the lovely shiny bits this country is capable of churning out-top end, of course! Thanks so far everyone-especially the info about On One, thought that was solely uk based-but ive still got 2 years so any more info welcome before then!!!

Whys that saddle not a Brooks? Italian company now, but still made in the UK

I'd of thought fatso's would look dead on on this build.

You could always drill between the spokes to lighten them up

the builds only about 65/70% thru so far, so the flite, spds, bb and headset (et al) are only mock ups at the mo to hold it together and pretend to my other half that i have a complete bike-its easier for her to throw bits out if they're in a pile in the garage!!!
