Welcome from Melbourne
Hi John,
Welcome from Melbourne. Plenty of good advice here. I bought a e wheel 'kit' from Hoosier profiles and had sent down from the USA, and built a frame at work from 100x100x6 RHS. Stiff as you like, works well.
You will no doubt have seen a number of cheapies on the eastern Aus side on e-bay. Bottom line is you get what you pay for. There is a good thread on this site with various wheels others have built/bought over the years.
Some people swear by a stiff frame for control, others do not see it as so important. I am not experienced enough to advise, but went for the 'stiff is better' approach anyway and have been pleased with the results. Hoosier parts are comparitivly expensive compatred to others out there but the quality cannot be questioned in my view...top notch
Good luck.......Garrick.
