Custom Wheels..........

Anybody know ao anyplace where I can get some custom wheels......rather inexpensivly?

I have been searching around on Ebay for a long time and deals on wheels are tough to come by. I was thinking maybe somebody knows of a catalog or a small bike shop that has some decent wheels for under 2 grand.

I have a 2003 Night Train so I'm looking for a 21' front rim and a 16" rear. The ones below are Revtec wheels that are only $1000.00 for both wheels but they only have 16" fronts and rears. Damn!

Any help would be appreciated!

You might try this place:

http://www.parts123.com/PartFrame.as...E=JIREH_CYCLES

Just type "wheels" in the top left search box. Jireh cycles is the cheapest place I have seen custom wheels and they ship for free.

There are usually a ton of Revtech wheels on Ebay for under $2000 a set. If you don't see your sizes, try contacting the sellers directly.

RE: Custom Wheels..........

If you find the wheels you want, don't be skimpy on em. But to answer your question, The eBay Store sellers will give you the size you want. All you have to do is call them and tell them what you are looking for. I found the type of wheels I wanted on but they had akward sizes, called them up and the price was about the same.

RE: Custom Wheels..........

Bingo! Glad I asked you guys.

I called the dealer on the phone and they do have my sizes in stock.

The wife said, lets get em but I'm still a little apprehensive. [sm=teetertooter.gif]

Ya see, our bike has a chrome spoke rim on the front and a solid "polished" rim on the rear.[sm=WTFsgign.gif]

I could get another stock spoke for the rear pretty cheep or I could spend $1200.00 and get custom rims for both wheels.

Normally I'd be all over this but I'm hesitant for some reason.

Decisions, decisions......... I'm gonna sleep on it![sm=sleeping.gif]
