Looking around people seem to use different combinations of wheels for their scramblers.
I'm going for that triumph scrambler look.
I've seen 17 rears with 18 front.
17 rear, 19 front
even 17 rear 21 front.
What sort of width rims are people using for both? Was thinking 3.5" rear but not sure about the front?
I have a Harley sportster rear hub to lace up, was going to look out for a XS front hub with a modern single disc set up, probably R1 or the like.
Thoughts? Experiences?
On top of that I've got to consider the rear tyre size for clearance issues etc. I've got hold of an XJ600 swingarm to put in. First looks are it just needs some spacers making up as its smaller at the pivot than the XS arm. Then sort some buses out to take the XS swingarm bolt.
Thanks
