Yeah - early 90's through to around 97-ish. They're called Peregrine Crazy 95's :) Decent price as well - seen em go for around $200 without postage.

i remember them being called peregrine 'manly' 95's

dan harris should be able to confirm as he has a set or 2

the rim used to crack between the spoke holes as they were drilled so close together.

You might be right - I think I remember seeing em here as Manly's, maybe state-side they're Crazy's?

Simon I've just bought a pair of these and wondered if you could lace them for me with the hub stamp at 70 degree east of the valve hole on front rim  and 72 degrees west with one side 6 cross pattern and radial on the other at the rear . :)

Dropping them off on Thursday Ja  :daumenhoch:

i remember them being called manly 95's too. and that they used to crack between holes on the rims and the hubs. anyone remember the truck rim, tim ruck made a ring that sat in the centre of the hub that was radial laced to the rim and then cross laced the hub to the rim. never seen many of them tho.

Not often Tim Ruck gets a mention.  :daumenhoch:

I can see those Truck conversion wheels now, on a rusty TA with Itson bars, a home modified motorbike chainring and a moped chain (that was always coming off!)
