Hi,
I'm looking for a pair of wheels for my 1950s Carlton. Either as complete wheel, or as separate hubs and rims that I can build up. I'm struggling to decide between period kit ( eg. Airlite large flange on Dunlop Lightweight) vs something new ( I've seen some Dura-ace with H Plus Son TB14 but are a bit too expensive and 700c ) so open to suggestions.
Beggars can't be choosers, but preferably :
110mm rear OLD
100mm Front OLD
Fixed. (single, flip-flop, or double fixed )
27in rims
Large flange
Sprint or clincher
Shiny and clean, and without rust, but happy to re-build.
Budget is up to about £250
What have you got, or what do you suggest ?
Thanks
Tim.
