stuartni:
more updates rims build tyres fitted etc


disc painted just need lacquer




rear wheel ready to go on

bike rolling again






now with twin disc setup have to modify the disc and standard speedo drive alot to let them fit together

stuartni:
Standard rims  and yes read a few different ways of doing it and woulf of dobe your way if I thought of it befire geting the hub powder coated and built but my way will still work fine and do the job all being well

stuartni:
yes i do agree with tyre size with the rim i used the rear tyre as i already had it sitting there plus a friend of mine has been running a 130 rear and has been happy with it but i do completely agree with what your saying in regards to the handling. As for the twin disc setup i explained myself wrong i didnt modify the speedo drive i modified the the speedo plate and the disc for the lock tabs to sit in.thanks
