I ordered a rear wheel for a trial bike the other day thinking I would
turn it into a BC wheel. So it was a Monty Quando Hub and an Alex DX32
rim. And yesterday I took it to a welder in my town asking if they
could make me plates. So the made me some plates. And when the were
done we asked how much money do you want and then they said "Just go
have fun".


Then went over to a sports store in my town to get some fine thread
bolts and to take the rear sproket off. We asked him too, how much
money do you want and then he said "have a good day".

So I got the wheel for $12 on ebay and then the Echo Supa Tire for $10
on ebay and decided to put it on my Uni and the CC on the BC. So the
wheel and the tire with the shipping and everything else was free. So
I have this BC wheel for $30.

So now ive got this BC.

it doesn't.

should have got a bmx 14mm front hub, even if you wanted a trials bc.
what diameter axle does it have? anything below 14mm will bend.

looks good for the money you spent, just be sure to put some griptape
on it.
