Try get your knee down in the corner with this

Yeah, ehmn....You dont scrape knees on a Sm bike, but nice try.


Werent YOU the one saying that you thought there was no need for sm-rims, cause you had 150 or 160 tire on stock rim.... Someone has double standards..

And I said that too wide tires on a narrow rim would be bad. I never said anything about bigger is better, in fact i stated that I only run a 110 front because of better handling, and that you cant use up a 120 with my setup anyway.

Go read the thread again.... Better even, start a new one so the OP doesnt have to read al this crap in his thread. Then you have all the space in the world to talk about tires popping of the rim, and post random pictures from the interweb for gods know what reason.

Have a nice day, even if you disagree.

He says he want Sm wheels, you say:
Thats not telling him he dosnt need it? Then I missed the point, what was it then?

The OP tells you how much he loves his bike, and he want a SM conversion without breaking the bank, and you are still talking about oversized tires on stock rims? How on earth are you gonna get a Sm-look with a skinny 21" front rim? As for the sizes, have a look yourself. Its not something I just made up:

Im not gonna comment further than this on your hate on Denmark, we covered that well in another thread. Im pretty sure wheelies are just as fun in Denmark as in other places, I should know, I've done'em in 20 countries on my Xt.
Thers plenty of places to ride if you want rugged terrain. I help as a track marshall in the danish enduroraces. Plenty of hillclims.

Theres also more than 1400 different islands, you can even ride on the beach to some of them at shallow waters, no need for brigdes or ferries.

We have about 9000km of coastline, so plenty of pretty places. No place in Denmark is more than 52km away from the ocean, thats kinda amazing. Its actually hard to map our country, as the coastline varies up to 10km depending on the tide. Theres more to awesome places than altitude. Turism in Denmark is growing steadily, so other people seem to realise this aswell. They're certainly not here because its cheap, cause its not.

Anyways Its still allowed to cross the boarder and go out and see places. The Sm rims felt fine at the track of Nürburgring aswell. And in Holland, Belgium, Luxemburg and France. And yeah I enjoyed my moped there aswelll

I sincerely hopy you enjoy your bike as much as i love mine

I have a front wheel hub for sale. Just the brake disc bolt threads are damaged, so you would need to fix that (or re-drill and thread new holes, and fill the old ones).
Throw me an offer if you're interested.

Hey, sorry for bringing this old thread back to life.
I'm looking to build 17" wheels for my XT 600 Tenere 34L.
I'm thinking of getting a set of 3.5"*17" front and 4.25"*17" rear.

My question tho, is where to get spokes? I've found several calculators to get the length, but it's the bends I'm a bit worried about.

Edit: One thing I've thought about, don't know if it's immensely stupid tho, could you shorten and re-thread the original spokes?

I got mine from these people - https://www.central-wheel.co.uk/. They knew their stuff, knew what bends & lengths I would need and delivered a great set of front spokes.

no you cant, these are rolled threads, not cut into the metal with a die.

Roger, realized that after some googling. Looks like central-wheel have or makes what I need, and prices seem ok. Many thanks!

central wheel did rims and spokes for two british bikes restorations of mine, highly recommended
