Okay if you have the skills to wheel build. I’m finding it tricky to get decent pre-built 26″ wheels that I like, particularly with newer model rims or hubs, with 135 rear hub width, 20mm front hub option etc.
Custom builds are less of a problem, though many sites have less options to pick from in 26 now, but it’s possible. Just that the cost from a wheel building site is huge.
This is the best tenner you will ever spend then… http://www.wheelpro.co.uk/wheelbuilding/book.php
Wheel building isn’t really hard and doesn’t really need any magic tools. Decent spokes are about £8/20 at Rosebikes, so get some decent hubs that you can recycle forever, and start building cheap wheels for yourself! 😀
