what wheels are people using for bike engine converisons
Posted: Mon Oct 17, 2011 3:02 pm
just wondering and starting to gather parts
I would have liked to stay with 10" wheels to keep the scooter low down, but will do that with the bodywork if people reckon that a 12" wheel is the way forward
I had been looking at the supermoto wheels for the pitbike market, they do some smart alloy rims. Anyone used them or know of a reason not too??
these sort of things??

or these, look great and nice and wide

I would guess that modifying standard scooter wheels would be easiest, ideally front and rear from a disc braked scooter at a guess??
can you advise on the models I need to look for please?
