Or was that some other manufacturer? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10842#post-120482 Fri, 02 Aug 2013 18:58:59 +0000 gembo 120482@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I have tht wheel on my hack but not the white trim. Helped me lug shopping up hill. On spesh crossroads which is too heavy, would prefer five speed but good folk on here say SA 5 spd not so good. There is a two spd that you kick to change the gear, bit extreme? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10842#post-120480 Fri, 02 Aug 2013 18:51:51 +0000 kaputnik 120480@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Caught my interest until I saw the 'orrible deep-dish white hipster rim with crow's foot spoke lacing. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10842#post-120477 Fri, 02 Aug 2013 18:44:41 +0000 custard 120477@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>wont add a link as i always seem to get processed meat trapped</p> <p><em>Want the fixie/single speed look with better practicality?</p> <p>for sale: good quality road bike wheel built around a three speed sturmey archer hub.
