Haven't done any updting here for a LOOOOOOONG time
I got one finished and rode it around a bunch last year, did a couple of G0-Pro vids, etc for You Tube
I've had 3 surgeries on left elbow so couldn't do much (didn't work, hand still tingles/numb)
Anyway, few months ago, someone was asking about flanged alloy rims, alloy rims and stock rim weights
As I was working on wheels yesterday I weighed some rims.
18"x 36 holeStock 360 WM2 steel rim, 6.05lbs
Flanged alloy WM2 rim 3.78lbs
Flanged alloy WM3 rim, 3.88lbs
Moto-cross WM3 rim (no flanges)4.48lbs.
The blue MX rim is noticeably thicker material but I'm still surprised the same size flanged rim is over half pound lighter
Just weighed a genuine Boranni WM3 x 18 40 hole I'm going to fit to CB450 drum, 3.95lbs
I'll update with pics of what I'm up to if anyone is interested?
