So being a tart... I just wanted to know if there we Mag wheels (like BMX's) that I could get for my commuter/winter road bike?

I just like the look. I don't want a fixie as that too much hard work. 1 cog just wont do!

Perhaps unsuitable or even prohibitive costs but just interested.

Waste of time imo, at best they are very heavy and non absorbent, at worst they will snap and kill you!

...just have a gander at their products list and you'll see that there are several wheel types for different applications.


ETA: Scroll down to the bottom of each product page for pricing. You should ensure you are sitting down first though. Eyewatering was one word that sprang to mind!
