Anyone with a tyreless ally marchi can you check

[DJ Tera]

something for me please?

I need someone to measure the distance between the 2 'lips' of the wheel, from the inside of them if that makes any sense - and post the measurement here...


Pretty please? :saint:

Front or rear?

[DJ Tera]

oops :lol:

rear mate :)

On my 6" rear Marchessini the inner measurement at the bottom of the bead area is 160mm, sorry haven't got a 5 1/2" without a tyre on at the moment.

Do you need a measurement for a 5.5" rim DJ ?? If so ill go and open a box and check for you mate..

Nat

[DJ Tera]

Cheers mate, gone to measure my supposedly 6" rear wheel and something isn't quite adding up!!

[skidlids]

So DJ what measurement are you getting off your wheel.

[DJ Tera]

Ok I'm measuring between the two lips, at the bottom where they meet the rest of the wheel if you get what I'm on about - I'm getting roughly 145mm

So it looks like it may be a 5.75" :puzzled:

Thats why I needed someone to check an ally one - a known quantity as AFAIK they are only made in 5.5"

[skidlids]

At 15mm narrower than my 6" rim it sounds more like its a 5 1/2 ", hopefully Nat will be back with a measurement soon, if that don't happen I'll get my bead breaker back from Senna3 and take the slick off one of my alloy 5 spokes.

Ahhhh bugga - never mind - it looks like it might be a 5.5 or 5.75 - but what the hell is the point of a 5.75 anyway:puzzled:
