So my GF's Specialized bike rims come out of true like crazy,we ride together but her bike seems to take a real beating...the model she has is Rockhopper and the rims and hubs are generic,there is no name on anything hub or rim,just plain aluminum.Anyway i go to a bike shop and buy a new set of rims for her bike not knowing that there are two types of hubs :Freewheel and Freehub (just learned that from The Haynes Bicycle Book),the rims i bought for her are freehub and she needs freewheel !,boy i was mad...especialy because the guy at the bike shop didn't even ask what type of rims i need !,but what i noticed on the net is that most wheelsets are for freehub ,does that mean that i may have a problem geting a set of wheels that will work on her bike ?,tuesday i will return the wheelset back at the store (Rhyno Lite/Shimano Deore),does anyone know where i can find a decently priced ($ 200 cnd or less) wheelset that's a Freewheel not Freehub ?
Thank you and sorry about the long posting.
