Any interest in a 21" version of the FLD front wheel?
I have been in contact with MAD wheels about this topic. The specs would be 21 x 3.5. Still able to fill the front fender width wise but also giving the bike that modern 21" inch wheel.
The price for a one off wheel would be about $2000. WAY out of my range for 1 wheel. So I asked "what if I could get 5 people to commit". This was his response: " polished, ready for paint with hubs, probably around 750-800 each".
Now, this is still a bit high but much more do-able than 2g. I am not looking to make any money on these and I will be happy to forward any and all conversations between myself and MAD wheels regarding this subject to those who are interested.
Personally, I love the look and the retro Torque Thrust-esque styling of the wheel. I just think it needs to fill the fender more.
Let me know your thoughts or if you'd like to commit and I'll get more serious in my conversation with them.
