when it comes to single speed rims, you can only get chrome rims around here. So If I want painted rims I have to find some old rims, strip em' down, and paint them.
I got this specifically for the rims. It's 79 bucks online. There are other decent parts...handlebars, stem, fenders. The pedals are cheap plastic, the seat is squeaky and uncomfortable. I may use the frame and fork for a burrito bike.
I used the rims for this bike. the 24 x 3 tires were a little tricky mounting...they didn't want to stay on at first, but after a couple tries of letting the air out and remounting they stay on fine. viewtopic.php?f=6&t=5113
