    Look here, loadsa wheels loadsa prices. I can't reccomend any one wheel in particular as I don't know if you're using rim brakes or V-brakes or if you need a freehub. 'Fitting' a wheel shouldn't cost much, if anything, slap on a cassette, bang on an aul tube and tyre and then pop the axle into the drop-outs and close the quick release and it's job done like.

    Why do you need a whole new wheel if it's only slightly buckled? Couldn't you just true it?

    Any decent quality shop will true the wheel for ye. Not sure where you're based but these lads are pretty good in Rathfarnham Villlage http://www.expertcycles.ie/Workshop, I think the owners name is Alfie.
