I have built up a new polo rig and my old rig (bright orange 16" mtn bike) aka the orange crush, is on the market.

It is nearly a complete bike, needs a saddle and rear wheel. $75.

I have a great rear wheel that I will throw in for another $50:
Double Walled Mavic D521 SUP Rim, 36 spoke
Shimano Deore Hub
Continental Town and Country (26-2.125) Tire

PM if you are interested.

the image tags were reversed somehow. the opening tag should just be "img" in brackets, and the closing tag should have a "/" in front of the "img".

sometimes when you use the automatic tag buttons in the toolbar of your reply, it will force them to go in places you may not want them to... I usually just manually add the tags.

I have revived a frame that has been in my family for more than 20 years. She will be at the courts tonight. Where can I order a 48 spoke 700cc rear wheel? I tried editing my post as you directed but it did not work.

you also have to link to the actual file, not the flickr page

flikr page:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/7597628@N05/2340718012/in/set-72157604141054289/

if you ctrl click on the image you can open image in a new tab (on a mac) which gives you the actual image address:

sometimes confusing, i just keep trying shit until it works

PP has a couple of 48 hole black Mavic rims upstairs (700c). I was just over there and checked them out for you. Around $80 each, though.

Milwaukee / Ben's Cycle sells a brand new 48 hole hub set for around $100, which is cheap considering a new Shimano 48 hole tandem hub is $100 for just one hub.

If it were me, I'd check eBay for used 700c tandem wheels, because they're usually 48 hole.
