Wanted - Lightweight rear wheel
After much arse seeing this weekend trying to get bargain wheels to fit the Badger I've decided to just ask and see if anyone has a proper wheel to fit him.
I've got 2 standard rear and 1 standard front ones that could be used in any deal should the other party so desire.


It's not the size of the dog in the fight that matters, but the size of the fight in the dog.

Just as a minor detail, can anyone tell me the difference between a standard and a lightweight wheel?

Just so I know what I'm looking for!

The thicker part of the spokes are towards the hub,rather than the rim.

Here's a comparison pic:
Left (black) is the original heavy wheel with the spokes thicker at the rim.
Right (bronze) is the later light wheel with the spokes thinner at the rim.

HTH.
