Re: [emrat:11032] Re: Bonnie cast wheel project: DONE!

Wow that really looks great.  I like the retro look of spoke wheels but your bike looks super with those wheels.

For those who are interested, the total cost was under $400 not counting the tires (which I needed anyway.)  Both wheels were found on EBay and the only other thing I had to buy was a set of 4 low profile panhead bolts to replace the big hex bolts that hold the fender in.  I did that because I was putting a 10mm wider tire on the 18" wheel (a 110/90/18 in place of the stock 100/90/19) and I wasn't sure if the tire would clear the bolt heads.  As it turns out, I think they would have  cleared but I like the lower profile bolts anyway and I think my cost for them was about $4.00 at Ace Hardware.
