Opinions on wheels

[wafty cranker]

Hi guys,

Just after some feedback on my wheels please. I recentley had them powder coated black, and was a bit concerned on how they would look with the grey frame.

Turned out OK though I think, what you reckon?

Looks the dog's mate.

I'm gonna do mine with a red pin strip also and fix a carbon fibre front guard.

Ditto. Also done a few of the other comments that have been made. Have carbon front and rear huggers and will be having red lines very soon.

Think the whole red body work and black wheels is a good look.

Why not consider doing the frame red and swing arm black next winter ?

Nelly at Cornerspeed did me a set of 996 wheels in black powder coat for around £120 ish. I gave him the loose wheels and the price included the tyres being stripped and re-fitted. Very good finish.

It cost me a £20 to get the tyres removed, then £80 to get them powder coated.

Glad you like them, nice to get a vote of confidence. Added a vented front mudguard aswell now, looks nice.

Any opinions on a set or rearsets? Is there anything out there that isnt going to cost as much as Arrows etc?

Thanks in advance,

Neil

Did consider getting a red pinstripe painted in, but felt the plain worked better. Never been one for flashyness (Says him who has spent more than he cares to remember on tricking it up!!)

Hmmmm, what bits next ? :p

I like the way it makes the swinging arm stand out, with out going all bling,
it's looks right, one beautiful bike and not a load of nice parts that dont work,
when I do mine I think it's black for me.
