Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

650C Wheels - Where can I find a decent set?

Hi - been having some trouble sourcing an affordable new or used set of 650C wheels.

Anyone have any recommendations on some websites I can check out?

Thanks!

If you're looking for aluminum I can usually still get rims in 650. Most other wheel builders can as well.

Psimet is probably your best option.

I know my frame builder has many used wheelsets, but none of them are “basic wheelsets”.
