Post by: GTSantaAna on August 12, 2009, 12:01 PM: Nice work on the wheels ! If you fitting this wheel on a freestyle frame/fork, I suggest a Comp ST freestyle tyres or a panaracer freestyle tyres (cannot remember the name though)

Cheers ! :daumenhoch:

Title: Re: acs zrim pat pend refurb
Post by: neiljonarcus on August 12, 2009, 01:29 PM: i have a mate who is a sale,s rep for fin lube . that little tin cost £8.00 it has teflon and all other nice things in it . the reason for boiling hot so it heats the wheel while you are rubbing down with the wet or dry and the soap in the water is a little bit lube
