S-10 Rim and spoke supplier here in UK?

[xylo66]

Anybody here in the UK know of a supplier who could supply a 21" front rim and spokes for a S-10 ?

I've built up a separate / spare set of rims, one with road tires on and the other with K-60 knobblies on to switch ; depending if I'm going off-road or on ( too many friends with sports bikes ! )

Thanks

You lucky bugger! I'm still trying to find a set of wheels or hubs to do the same. Did you find used wheels or buy new components?

I bought complete set of hubs, spokes and rims from the Yamaha dealer here in Swindon and shod them with heideau K60 Scouts ready to switch them over in a few mins. Due to the fact that most of my local friends ride sports bike here in the west country and I love giving them a run for their money , I ride with the stock OEM standard Tourances which grip really well on road. However, when I want to go off road, I can swop over quickly and within 10-20 mins have a different " mode" ready to go. However, I am investigating changing the front rim ( just the off road ) for 21" which means a slight alteration for the beak for clearance. This is WIP and thus my question for this tread. My inspiration comes from Wasp's mod and the Woody solution. Unfortunately, to get one shipped over from Woody will be in excess of $450 plus import tax / customs duty and shipping costs. I believe I can get this done locally, but few can do tubeless rims, so, still more WIP to be done.
