SpudWheel with D.I.D. Rim
I just finished building another custom, 18-inch SpudWheel for a fellow Zongite.
![]() ![]() For this particular wheel I laced a size 2.50x18, D.I.D. rim to the Zonshen rear hub with Buchanan's custom spokes. ![]() ![]() The particular rim is the stock, OEM rim supplied with the Yamaha, TW200 front wheel. I have built three wheels with Warp 9 rims, and I think the Warp 9 rims represent an excellent value. However, this D.I.D. rim is the best manufactured rim I have yet seen. ![]() ![]() This custom SpudWheel is now packaged, and ready to ship. I hope the new owner enjoys riding upon this wheel for many safe miles. ![]() Spud ![]()

very nice man, but how in the heck did you know where the spokes go and in what order ?
maybe you should order a few hubs and rims, lace them up and put them on ebay for all the other china bike owners who are in need of new rims

Nice Job Spud. That looks like a good high quality wheel. I think the owner will enjoy the feel of his ride with that on it. New rubber and balance always money well spent.

Spud I was unaware of that. I am curious now what he will be running up front, rim size?

That's good he has the option for a 21 in the front. With that 18 in the back the 21 would give him better :arrow: berm control.

I didn't think to check Home Depot. I found it at Staples. I have alot of stuff to ship and that would really help in packaging it up.
