[Closed] Recommend a 700c SS Wheelset?

The rims are now very worn on my single speed commuter and I'd like to replace the wheelset with something lighter. Can anyone recommend a 700c wheelset (flip-flop or single sided free-wheel) for <£150?

Cheers,

Paul

120mm spacing?

A buddy of mine thought these were excellent value, but I think they used to be only £100:

Or get the On-one hubs and build your own with something like Mavic Open Sport rims - should easily be under £100 for the set.

Yep, 120 mm.

These look like they'll do the job. No indication of weight though.

These are surprisingly good for the money.. And you can have them in gold if that's your thing 🙂

Hardly light at 2100g for the pair though!

If you can find ss wheels under £150 and light I'm all ears 😉
