Scooterotica

Was all up for buying some new BGM stainless steel satin rims they are out of stock........whats the next best split rim out there and who is using them?????
Also is wide rim and tyre on the back still a good thing/popular?
btw i,m not into tubless rims just seems like too much hassle.

Scootopia sell some decent rims.

The FA italia ones are good

will give the scootopia was ago if its like the rest of their stuff it will be well tested.
thanx for the help gents.

Chrome don't get you home Martin

Be nice with crackers then

In what way warped , studs ? Just so I can check mine , been on all last year done a few thousand miles not noticed out ?

The thread spacing on the studs isnt good so depending on the nut used the thread were so soft they crunbled as you tried to get them tight, i,m sure some batches are better than others but i had this experience twice so i wouldnt be buying FA italia again........
thats my experience so just keep a check.
cheers

I've tried the Evergreen one from Scooter Centre and Scootopia's own recently. The Evergreen is a good rim, but already rusting around the edges. The Scootopia ones take some beating in my opinion. Good rims with original features. What's not to like really?
