I really like the cast wheels on my America, but want to go to Maxxis white walls and they will look much better on spoked rims. I am thinking of Black powdercoated or anodized rims, hubs, and spokes with the fat white walls. Anybody have this set up? Any photos if you do?

Does anyone have a set they may want to get rid of or maybe swap? If not, where is the best place to get some hubs that I can have rims made for? Has anybody laced their own spoked wheels for Truimphs? If so, where would I find the pattern to use?

When you switch your wheels over you will need to run tubes in your tires. If you have dual disc brakes on the front, you will end up losing one side of the assembly.
