Default Arlen Ness retro wheels

Does anyone have a picture of these wheels on a bike? They make a 21" and I am going that direction. Seems like a lot of people are going fat spokes and they look sweet. Thinking of trying something different though. Thanks.

Yes, I understand your situation.

I quoted them back a couple of years ago, they are beautiful pieces. Back then the pair, 18"-21"x3.5" (which was not offered standard production for my '99), was $4,000. I don't think they're over-priced, they're expensive (different) because of it's unique construction and design. For me it is easier, next time I'll ride up, have them mounted there and ride home leaving the old pancakes behind, that way you can avoid monstruous import taxes.

Mimo.
