Cheap disc front wheel

Anyone have a cheap front 26" disc wheel kicking around?  Trying to upgrade my wife's old bike to a disc front as I have an old disc bomber fork for it to replace the manitou SX ti.

If you want to sell the manitou, PM me.
I'm trying to fix up a bike for a friend.

In the meantime, I'll see if I have a disk front wheel, I'm pretty sure i do. If so, it's yours. I'll advise when we have some daylight.

Good luck! Most people on here have burned their 26" stuff   

I have one - 20mm axle - not perfect but works - its been laying around for a spare but I haven't used it in 6 years   

Specialized Hub w/ Sun Singletrack rim - 6 bolt

You are welcome to the Manitou if the wheel works out. I just pulled it apart last night, pulled/cleaned the leaky seal and reassembled.  Looks pretty good actually. 

Forgot to mention that my fork is a 9MM QR. Standard dropout (for 2004)

Thanks but the fork is a QR.   

I know I am in the minority with my 26" stuff. This is my wife's old GT rebound that has been hanging on the wall for years.  I replaced the Bomber ETA on my old Santa Cruz Superlight with a fox, so it has just been kicking around.  If I can swap her fork out we all win! 

I should either replace the bike or just go disc both ends but I am remarkably cheap when I have no idea if it will actually be ridden upon assembly.

Sorry man, I couldn't find one.
The one I had was a rear wheel.
