Hello all. I own a 2001 Night Train and I've searched high and low looking for a solid front rim, preferably black powder coat but will take anything, does anyone know a place to pick one up?
Wheel surface area is pi*r'square.. the difference is pi* (21square - 16 square).
What I am trying to say it 21" solid wheel has 75% larger surface (200.94 square inch vs 346 square inch).
Some fatboy riders expressed concern when the front wheel is affected by wind gusts , some riders say it is not a 'big' factor and some say not a factor at all, each armed with their set of arguments.
Alas, if you are in the first camp (and only if) you should consider the adverse effects.
