Try eBay or Amazon, 5speed rear wheels are pretty rare these days. Most likely you will have to find something used.

SOURCE: Have roadmaster mens bike 26in.

No guts need be pulled out. You just have to remove the gears to get at the hub flanges straight-on.

You know, a complete wheel replacement might set you back less than the parts and tools you would need to do it correctly.

Google "bicycle rim replacement" for the actual procedure.

Like this one that starts out, "The wide availability of inexpensive, well-built replacement wheels has reduced the need for wheelbuilding in retail bike shops."...

Ineed a rear rim with,all the works.for a resonance dbx bike 26".

It takes a standard 26 inch wheel (may be labeled 26x1.75, 26 x 1.5). Tire should match the front in width (1.75, 1.9, etc). The gears need to match the shift system, and I could not find info regarding that for your bike online. Need to go by how many speeds/gears on the rear.

I’m happy to help further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/donald_f2ed37026a3ac881

Correct procedure to remove rear tire from 2007 suzuki intruder vl1500.

Do you mean tyre or wheel.? Tyre removal requires the use of a tyre bead breaker and levers and rim protectors, once the tyrehas been broken away from the wheel all around on both sides , start tyre removal with the valve at about 1oclock insert a rim protector followed by a tyre lever and rest it against the rim protector and under the first bead of the tyre, then push the tyre into the middle of the wheel rim at about 6oclock on the rim, and keep it down while yuo push down the tyre lever against the rim pulling the tyre over the rim at the valve end, you will then need to insert another lever close to the ready inserted one to continue pulling the tyre over the rim all the way around untill removed completely, wheel removal on this bike is easy, securing the bike is not, because of the rear fender design you will have to lift the bike high enough to remove the wheel from the rear of the bike once it has been removed from the bike, Remove the securing nut from the r,hand side its a little fiddely unless you remove the exhaust silencers which is probably the best bet, remove the rear caliper and carrier from the bike, pull the wheel spindle from the left side out, it may need a slight. Knock to start from the r,hand side, then the caliper. Carrier can be removed , note order of spacers, and place in a safe place for replacment, from the right grab the wheel with both hands and pull gently untill it is removed from the diff, carefully remove from the frame takeing care not to mark the wheel or other paintwork, and not to dismount the vehicle fro its stand,

I have vintage 60's front and rear phlanged hubs (no spokes or rims) and would like to have them made up with say rigida rims. Can anyone advise likely cost and who best to approach in west...

I can not answer the "who" to go to, but my experience is that any of the bike shops can point you in the right direction if they can not help you.

Vintage 60's hubs need to be going on a vintage 60's maybe 70's bike to work, otherwise the spacing will be off, so before starting this project make sure that these will work for what you are planning to put wheels on. Also you will have to be using a limited speed gear cluster for the rear hub, unless they are track hubs and then it's just one. Also you will need to know what size rim you are looking for to go with your bike frame. Modern road bikes use 700c but that was not the case in the 60's, they could have been any one of many different sizes and for your brakes to match up and the wheel to fit in the frame you need to know that too.

good luck, vintage parts can be fun to restore to working mechs but the older they are the less compatibility there will be.

I am trying to fix a Huffy Blackwater bicycle (15 speed). The rear derailleur is missing. Can I use a 6 speed derailleur from a Next bike? Can I disable the indexing of the Huffy (Falcon) shifter? Thanks

You can use the 6 speed rear derailleur with no problems. The 5-spd shifter does not need to be disabled, as it will work just fine.

The shifter controls the rear derailleur, telling it how far to move. The rear derailluer just follows what is dictated, so there is no real difference mechanically between the 5spd and 6spd derailleurs, only in the shifter.

If you wanted to make the bike 6spd, you would have to change the shifter and gears along with the derailleur.
