    Well, My 32 hole singletracks are great, except for the fact that they bend like nothing when they get hit from the side.

    I'd like to upgrade the rear to somthing like an azonic outlaw or a 721 laced to a pro 2 hub. Problem is, no money! All i have is 90$ in paypal and my rear wheel (pretty straight, i just want to upgrade before i taco it)

    Hmmm... what to do what to do.

    Suggestions?

    Here, I have a great idea

    http://www.transitionbikes.com/NotBikes_Wheels.cfm


    50 bucks for a hoop, just have to build it up..... Strong as hell, I beat the holy shit out of mine and they just hold up...... Im a big guy too, and I have def put these through the ringer. I have there hubs as well, but go whatever route you need. I know you were having some rear hub issues as well, Maybe time to nutt up, save up, and get the whole set.... Cant go wrong for 319, lots of options
