sumo wheel

(1/1)

rory:
found a sumo frount wheel in me shed today, it has a low flange hub with kj stamped on it in the middle.
spokes where completly rusted .
does anyone know if its worth re spoking or scrap.
it looks like a ukai without the white lines
thanx

theRuler:
i like them

rode them a lot bitd

yes, worth restoring. imo

won't impress the label brigade though

jT Racing:
got one pair of sumo's. they are exact replicas of 7x,s. Any straight, useable, genuine OS rim is worth saving in my opinion.

gt0733:
i've got 2 sets of sumo rims laced to some no name hubs and i tell you, unless you read the engraving you cannot tell the difference between them and arayas. the only difference i can see is your bank account lasts longer buying them over arayas  :2funny:

pickle:
i ran a set on my street beat which i rode up until i got my new school ride......i'm 16stone and they took my lardy arse fine  :daumenhoch:
