Default New Wheels are On!!!!

Just picked the bike up with the DNA 21/18 combo. Just gotta get the blue off the tires.

Do I just use a scotchbrite pad with soap and water?

Couple of side notes:
1. They had a 21", 26", and 30" rim all next to each other and wow the 30 is huge. I think my brother took a pic

2. Apperently I'm the only one who has ordered a lePera seat with red diamond stitching, and when I had trouble getting it on at first and posted here LePera saw it and called my Indy to make sure everything was perfect. Thanks LePera.

Friggin Sweet bro !!! Looks great. How was the install ? You don't need a scotchbrite pad. All you need is a rag and water. You can even use a paper towels with water. Whatever Tab puts on them it comes right off. Not like the Avon's or Metz's from the factory.

Looks good, I am also going with the red stitching on the seat, can't decide between la pera or C&C. Nice wheels, what springs did you end up going up front?
