Anyone with a tyreless ally marchi can you check
 

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?

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

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

So DJ what measurement are you getting off your wheel.

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"

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.

Hi DJ..sorry..didnt get back from mallory until late last night..just checked and only have 5.75 inch rims, no 5.5..sorry mate
