Wheel build

Hi all, my first post so please be gentle. I want to build a new wheelset to replace the very cheap stock wheels on my bike. Can someone point me in the direction of a 135mm rear hub disc / 6 Bolt. I don't want to pay stupid money so sub £75. It must be able to accommodate a Shimano Ultegra 11 speed road cassette and be quick release. Thanks in advance

Novatec D792SB appears to meet all those criteria.

Just saw these...

You could email them and ask if they'd sell just the rear- they've always been helpful when I've needed stuff that's not been exactly what they have in stock.

I had a quick look on Wiggle but couldn't find anything suitable.

If I were you, I'd go for buying pre-built wheels as they tend to be cheaper than buying the separate components. Also, you'll have more choice if you're prepared to go for centre-lock, though that'll involve buying new rotors.

Technically not an answer, but... FH-RS505 and an adapter. Still within budget. Best idea I've got unless your 11-speed cassette happens to be the 11-34, in which case you can look at older mountain hubs instead.

Technically no, but a route I may have to go down. Thanks
