Wanted: Good rear non-disc singlespeed wheel

[lenox_mtbr]

Looking for a good quality rear wheel to save me from having to buy and use a tensioner to convert my bike to a singlespeed . . . anyone have a solid rear wheel (or reasonably priced pair) that will fit an old hardtail and prevent the necessity of a tensioner? respond here or drop me a line at marc_lenox@yahoo.com, thanks! happy riding.

If you don't have horozontal dropouts or other method of taking up slack in the chain, i believe you will still ned a tensioner irregardless of what type of wheel/hub/sprocket design you use.

10-dog is right, I am selling a wheelset below this post, maybe we can work out a deal?

thanks for the feedback guys, i have learned that yes, i would need a tensioner even if i had singlespeed-specific rear wheel UNLESS it had an eccentric hub . . . so if solid's wheelset has an eccentric hub, please let me know, otherwise i'm just going to pick up a singleator and use my current, heavy-but-true wheelset . . . thanks again

"eccentic hub" I think i had one of those too! Seriously, overall it would probably be eaiser and cheeper in the long run to use a singleator, reg wheel/hubsets are fairly inexspensive and easy to come by. Good luck with the project.
