I'll support dave -- it's probably the gas burners.
Price, when I shopped for mine (iirc -- probably 24mths ago now) was in the 200-300/wheel depending on condition/blah blah blah. Bug guys apparently love 'em -- paint 'em black with the high parts (spokes/etc) left painted the magnesium color. If you google for them, you should pull up lots of pics. They're light (it's wierd picking one up), but only 5.5 in. Dunno about the sturdiness/etc. kim. |
