Yes; but original rims are becoming more and more sought after now and correspondingly expensive too. That's if you can find one that isn't pitted and beyond use. Got to be Indian really from a company like Scooter Restorations.

Tino Saatchi has had some Innocenti ones remade in alloy but they're over £60 each.

I'm still using the Patron tubeless split rims but they're also about £60
I do not try to explain why I ride Lambrettas,
For those who understand, no explanation is necessary,
For those who don't, no explantion is possible.

I don't get that. Are you suggesting that the Tutto rims, for instance, are somehow manufactured to a higher standard. I would doubt that myself. The only thing that makes them more expensive is the scale of manufacture.

What are these patron rims? Any links?
