Yep that is strange... maybe i got a mystery wheel. Or DNA just changed something.... I purchased my wheels late last summer directly through DNA also.

There was no way a normal tube would fit into the wheel. My local HD dealer actually drilled the wheel in front of me... somethings going on....

I believe the difference between valve stem opening was.... rear .30" and front was .23"

Country ,tell them when you order the rims. Because I was told they make the rims individual.

Sweeeet rides, I love the cow-glide color scheme. Nice Job!

Whose internal throttle and cable did you use? I am wanting to clean up my bars like that. I bought the hydraulic clutch as well for the left side. Just trying to figure what throttle to use

those bikes are mint!
