    Hmmm it says your links are a "Bad Request". Have you copied them over properly or is my computer having a cry? What width are the rims? It should have a number on them like "3.0" or "3.5" or "2.75" etc. Usually found on one of the spokes on each of the wheels (front will be thinner to rear).

    What frame is this for? You might be hard pressing putting that front in between the small forks of the AX100.

    I use a rim very similar to that on the frount of my rs125 honda with a spare wet tyre (very heavy compared to the standard rs125 rim)
    so if it's the right size 2.5" then a slick would fit

    Detlev from Napier is running these wheels I think (The front for sure) from what I remember at Taumarunui these rims will happily take the standard second hand 125 slicks.

    Going into a bucket KR150 at the mo. that is the long term plan. Will have an RG 250 rolling frame soon though with a Loncin in it fisrt though, so will see how it handles with the 17's instead of 16 & 18's.

    Wow, that's great to hear someone say that! Still learning about joining this part to that part etc. Pretty much run off what people say on here and from Bert.

    Cheers to all.

    Frame is a bit more chopped up since that photo. Going to shorten the sub frame tail by about 150mm too. Pretty excited about putting it all together!!

    Needs to be colder though, seems weird working in the shed at night in a t shirt and shorts.

    Hmurphy is asking the right questions, if they are meant to fit radial tyres that size they are way to huge, crossplies I dunno.

    I can't view the links either.
