My Mood:  | z50 wheel designs
Seeing how I can't hold a grinder to work on heads I'm going to have to spend more time on the computer doing my part designs. What's everyone think of these wheels? Any other things to try? I'm going to machine a set for my hardtail instead of buying some. I still haven't decided on 8in or 10in so if anyone has any hardtail pics comparing the two I'd appreciate it.

those look great i LOVE the lower right one and upper left one..make em .. !!! as for 8's or 10's ..that's a hard one.. if you're putting them on a bike with a long swinger and real style forks i'd say 10s.. if normal style forks i'd say 8's ( nad since you said a hardtail, i'd go 8 |
