KLE 500 front wheel replacement???
Just wondering if anyone can help? I have a KLE 500 N reg and would like to put a smaller front wheel in... has anyone done it? is there a wheel that will fit straight in? or will i need to get a new rim and have it fitted to the existing hub. Any help please....

I too would like a smaller front wheel. I have a plan and would like everyone's thoughts on it.
I have a set of spare wheels and a spare spare rear wheel. Now the plan is to use the front hub and a rear rim to make the smaller front wheel so ill end up with 2 sets of wheels one shod with off road rubber,and the other with sticky road tyres. I know the speedo will be out but can you see any other possible problems. I've already put the rear on the front and there looks to be plenty of clearance. Has anyone got any idea as to what tyres i could fit?

Thank for reading
