Default Fugitive wheels arrived

My new Fugitive wheels arrived yesterday, along with my chromed rotors. The install kits should be here next week. I want to get the tires mounted up, I asked the parts guy if the tires can be mounted without the bearings installed and he didnt know.
Anyone know? Balance Doesnt matter since im using Dynabeads.

Looks awesome!

For the dealership to mount tires, they shouldn’t need the bearings installed.

I recently did my bearings and tires on the gold Prodigy wheels. I had to do bearings first as they are leveraged by the No-Mar Tire Changer I use.

But I doubt the dealership is using one of those. 😀

That is a sharp looking wheel, be sure to post a pic or two when you get them installed on the bike.

That's a nice looking wheel! Can't wait to see them on the bike. I can't see them needing the bearings installed to mount a tire...keep us updated!

Yes, the tires can be mounted without bearing being installed. It makes no difference either way.

Did you get a set or just a front wheel? How much did you pay? I've been eyeing these wheels.

Nice! I looked at the all black ones, thinking of having them powdercoated in a gunmetal grey.

Look forward to your pics!

I got front and rear wheels from my local Harley dealer. They list for $749 ea but I got them to price match other dealers online selling for $689 ea.

Were they in stock at your local dealer, or had to be ordered?
