I find links to new bicycles, but no reliable sources for replacement parts. Plus, I am NOT paying 456.99 for a simple 26" wheel! Some of the sites I have visited are plain bonkers

Reliable sources for replacement parts, or finding ones that fit can be hard, while i think someone is making a hefty profit for a wheel that weighs just over 3lbs and costs 300.00

Meanwhile, you can but a cheap 20'' bike at Walmart for as low as 50 .00

Thanks Daniel, but as I already mentioned to FReeper deport, I currently have a few bicycles already, I just need a good source for spare parts to repair them.

We also do not have a local WalMart here. Closest similar would be a Costco but it is about 75 miles away from here. Plus, a new wheel should not cost significantly more than the cost of the bicycle itself, I believe.
