Andy (58DelRay) and I were discussing this the other day and there's nothing wrong with 7X rims as they were out in late '80 but Geese never had them factory fitted. Technically era ok but not OEM parts, so your choice.

Personally I prefer to build bikes as we actually remember them, ie with upgraded parts from around the right year as why would we have stuck with steel rims when affordable alloy ones were about by then? I didn't so that's why my copper coloured '79 Goose has '80 rims and an '80 crankset on it.

If you want a perfect era / OEM bike then prepare for a world of pain looking for tyres, grips and cables my friend as we chucked them BiTD so stocks are few and far between... ;-(

Just my thoughts....

7X were factory spec on the supergoose from 81-82 and were an option wheel for standard geese  :daumenhoch:

late 79 through to early 81 would have been 7c's on supergoose or as an optional upgrade on standard goose  ;)

And let's not forget tuffs and motomags where long the choice of many a gusset goose owner throughout the years or a good old set of bog standard FEMCO steel rims - plenty of wheel choice for a goose :daumenhoch:

Told off again... ;-(
