No, not yet. I only did the wheel change two weeks ago. The original type smaller cush rubbers were showing signs of wear and weren't very old.Can you tell the difference compared to the original hub?
Yes, hub, drum and spindle. $450 plus shipping I think . Shipping to UK was a bit steep but it is what it is.To do this conversion, I am guessing that you need to change the hub, drum, and go with the solid axle? What kind of $ in total??
I recall reading some time ago that there was not much weight saving on aluminum rims vs steel.
Certainly no weight saving on mine, quite the reverse, I went from 1.85 inch alloy to 2.5 inch alloy.Where does the weight saving come from??
