I'm looking to pick up a Blk Mrkt Riot this winter and want to swap over as many parts from my current Giant STP as possible. My current wheels are cheap/heavy/solid Azonic Outlaws with a quick release rear, which is no good for horizontal drops. I'm juggling the following options:
1) Buy a new 26" wheelset with 10x135 singlespeed rear hub, bolt-on. Suggestions please.
2) Buy a new 26" wheelset with 10x135 geared rear hub, bolt-on. Suggestions please.
3) Buy Nashbar SS 10x135 hub for $50 Lace it up to the Outlaw rim, will probably need to buy new spokes, lots of effort, will most likely cost more time/money than I want to spend.
4) Convert Azonic rear hub to 12mm through axle with provided parts. Dremel, drill, modify brand new Riot frame.
5) Any other suggestions welcome.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
