I would say the design is all up to you, but it sounds cool. I talked to the owner at his tent in Sturgis, and he said he can pretty much do anything with a wheel. I'm looking to go to them as well after seeing some of their work in person and talking to the guy. So defintely not a bad choice IMO.

I heard a lot of nice things about them, but if anyone remembers Studiopeg on this site had an absolute nightmare with those wheels.

A freind of mine has chrome rims and black spokes. Looks sick. Here is a pic or two. I sell RW's for the best price around as well. I also run their wheels on my sled. Contact me via PM or email for pricing on what you want. We work very clsoesly with Sam from Ride Wright and he takes good care of all of our customers.




Here are my chrome with candy red rims.

Damn, those black spokes look great with the chrome wheel & hub! That might work for my ride as well.

I had read about pegs problems here, didn't know what was going on with the wheel, but I did see the owner of the company, Sam, bend over backwards to do what ever it took to make her happy, and to find out what was going on with the wheel, that said, I met Sam at the vegas bikefest. After talking with him for a short while, realized what a man of great integrity he was, and was very impressed with his business model and his ideas of what it takes to be, not just successful in business, but successful in life, and lives his life that way, While I am not in the market for wheels, I would have zero qualms about doing business with the company and this man. Character of a man speaks volumes about how He will treat another person. Hats off to Sam at ridewright wheels

Agreed. I make every effort to meet and get to know the people whose products I sell here for this reason. There is a vast array of people in this industry and not everyone does thigns the same way, hwoever if i am going to make an effirt to sell someone's products i want to ensure that they will take care of business no matter what happens as I have seen all kinds of things happen. Sam is one of the few that will always fix an issue no matter how long or how much it will cost him. Well said harleycharlie.
