Default New Wheels from Bart at Cateye Customs
Got my new Weld (Blade, front; Eclipse, rear) wheels from Bart at Cateye Customs. Great service. I highly recommend him.

More photos. I went with solid rear wheel, rotor and pulley for ease of maintenance since you cant see anything but the edge of the wheel with the bags on:

Love it. Nice looking wheels. Like the rear being solid. No since adding the same as the front when noone will see it. What did it set you back? And are those rotors available in a floating style? Figure if I am changing things up front, I will switch to floating rotors.

Thanks. About $2800 including rotors, pulley and Metzler tires all mounted and balanced including shipping. I don't believe Weld offers floating rotors but there are similar designs to the Weld Blade wheel by other manufacturersthat I think do have floating rotors. I would have preferred floating rotors but I really liked the Blade design so I compromised on the rotor.

Totally stunning! I'm was impressed with the before look but the after look is evencooler.

BTW... great idea with the rear wheel. Just curious was it cheaper or more expensive than the front? Because if it was cheaper that pure genius.

Again, love the look - that is a Killer King you have there.
