I've thought about this mod and without going to bigger rims you'd probably hardly see the spokes because the brake discs cover 95 percent of the wheel. Looks good. Are they tubeless tires?

Awesome....looks like a Fat Bob and a Street Bob did it and had a kid.....best of both worlds.

And like someone said, those that have spokes want cast and those that have cast want spokes. Same here.
