Default Rear Wheel

Look to replace my stock 200mm wheel with a spoke wheel. Would like to go with an 18 vice a 17. Also looking for one that is good quality but not to expensive. Any suggestions?

I am looking to do the same exact thing on my '07 night train. I'm sure some of the experts here can help us.

Check out Hallcrafters. They have some real sharp looking spoke wheels.

I went with a DNA specialties 80 spoke. Billet hub, stainless spokes. I believe it was 400 or so for 18x5.5. The Avon Venom tire rocks btw. See the link in my sig for photo
