Square Circle
XS650 Addict
I own a 79' special and want to put an 18in rear wheel on my bike.. I've read some folks have adapted the rd400 or xs500 mag wheel. I like the disc brake look and feel, and want keep that set up. Going with a converted wire wheel is ideal, but cash adds up real fast for that. I have an rd 400 mag wheel now. Has anyone here done this swap, and if so i was hoping to get some insight on what other parts i may need to get this to work.. Bearing size for the stock 20mm 650 axle, internal bearing spacer measurements, axle spacers if needed, sproket spacer (shim) or adaptor if needed, and sproket source. Can I get a smaller sproket made by Rebel Gears or Sproket Specialist to fit the 4 bolt pattern? I'm fine with the xs650 stock 34 tooth but would like to try a custom cut 33when i get this swap to work. ??
Any help on this would be appreciated.. Thanks.
