But if the Ultima or DNAs were able to serve my purpose until I run out of everything else to do and I just felt compelled to spend that kind of money, one day I may splurge for RWs.
Thats kind of where i am at..I Hate to spend that kind of money on wheels if I can run one of the ultima wheels safely on my Crossbones. I am going to have to dig into this and see what i can figure out

The main problem I have with the Ultima's is that there is no specific info on them, just that they fit 1986-1999 models. They provide no info on which model or anything like that. Definitely made overseas.

Yeah, I made many calls to Jireh and spoke to many reps getting all the info I could. Especially since I have an aftermarket front end. I hope they get their info straight soon. Sounds like people are interested. Might even be enough to get Ride Wright to lower their prices, or do a Christmas sale..... or something to make them more affordable to potential buyers.

Many thanks for all the kudo's guys. I really am happy with this wheel. I have been riding the crap out of the bike since I installed it!!! I am working on picking something for the back, but thats another hair puller for sure. I just ordered a new 130/90-16 rear tire from bikebandit.com as they have a big sale. It will be here in a few days. The reason I ordered the tire is to help me pick a rear rim. At least now I KNOW it will be a 16 inch'er.
