Thinking of changing to alloy wheels. Does anyone know if brake rotors, speedo drive, and whatever else from my '05 spoke wheels will work on 2008 America wheels? Just checked Bike Bandit, they show spoke wheels for 2008.

I switched my '06 to the '08 alloys and everything is fine.

I am actually considering going from aloy to spoke. Does anyone know if I could still use the dual disc set up or would I have to switch to one disc?

To go spokes with twin discs you would have to use a Thunderbird Sport wheel.

The only problem is TBS wheels are REALLY hard to get hold of.
