Wanted: 700c free/fixed rear wheel

As usual, I don't have much of a budget.

If you don't have one you'd like to sell me, can you perhaps point me to a source for a non-expensive model online or elsewhere?

The frame spacing is just about 130mm and I'd prefer 36 holes and a schrader valve hole.

I could have sworn there was a pretty decent sounding new fixed rear at Jensen for way under $100, but their search function is either not working for me or they are not carrying it any more.

Thanks!

I have a Weinmann DP18 silver matte wheel set I can sell you for 75$. The rear spacing is 120mm though. The front wheel has a tire and inner tube (not popped), but the rear has been used and has some scuff marks and not tires or inner tube. Let me know

That could work! I just borrowed a 120mm Bianchi hubbed Alex rim rear - with some spacers it works fine - managed a perfect chain-line with a BMX freewheel. I wasn't planning to get a front wheel, but now that you mention it, a matching pair would look better.

How wide a tire do you think (or have you run) on those rims? I'm partial to something in the 28 - 32 range (although the 23 I'm running now is actually kind of fun - so fast!)
