Buy a used fixie wheel for less than $59.

Hey guys, very sorry for the delay in getting back to this thread. Pretty much everything is still up for sale besides some small stuff (pedals and merritt cranks are sold) I'll update later tonight with prices and pics of everything. Apologies again ... more »
