21" front wheel on 1150 adv?

Does anybody know of any new hub old rim combination that will fit my 1150 adv. A thought is to use the hub from the adv and the rim from HP2, but I don`t know if it is the same amount of spokes! Touratec has a 1150 in display with 21" front wheel, but I haven`t found out the specs on the wheel. It has to be a tubles solution, so bmw stuff is the only alternative.

BMW have fitted 40 spoke rims to all the spoked boxer wheels.
R100GS rim will fit. African Queen has wheel fitted with Behr rim, this is not tubeless as far as I can tell, it is expensive, supplied as complete wheel with hub. Behr rims is very good though and used by Rally teams. BavarianQueen
