recommend cheap 24h hub

I have found loads of inexpensive 32/36h hubs, but am having trouble finding inexpensive 24/28h hubs, in the under $50 range. 130mm rear, shimano 8/9/10 compatible.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Other's may chime in with ideas closer to your price-range, but these are super cheap for their drilling options and weight.

*edit* Oh, and I'd humbly recommend that you build a 28h rear wheel over the 24h option if you have the chance.

I'm using a 24h rear wheel built with a Speedcific hub bought new & cheap on ebay. Works fine for now.

I've read and have no reason to disbelieve that they are re-branded Formula hubs, so you might want to look for those as well.

Edit: found Formulas at $120+ on ebay, no speedcifics. I think I paid <$30 shipped for mine.
