check out those puppies, and the weather format on the same web page....

Nice- I wonder if my bigfoots will fit on those?

they will, the front wheel is not so easy, maybe new front fork required, guster can advise you on that...

Gusty has already built me a new front fork - should have heaps of clearance too!

I reckon they'll fit. The bigfoot rims on there are pretty wide already.

Just curious how you get a tirechuck to the valve... whoever placed it right in the middle needs a bit of a slap!

those are fruity looking rims. i need something like that for my landboard.

i think ultra long bendy rubber tubeless valves will work ok, I have really nice alloy 90 degree ones on my cb919 , the only after market part on there but well worth it to clear the 310mm front discs. Or, horror, tubes with 90 deg valves , yuck but practical.

Just have to search but the place that supplies them to the buggy kite shop in europe does do landboard sized rims too. But you could get a great water kite for the price of four of them too. Even those 320mm lo-pro's look fruity. Reminds me of the wheels Gannet used to run in the early years. :O)

Looking at the valve clearance it ain't the end of the world. Running tubes in these would be a utter sin though.

I hope the alloy is of a better grade then my mini chopper wheels from yester year, as they were made in china
and would crack every time I took flight,well it was more about the landing with out a manta in hand

how is that manta going gannet? been boosting of any dunes. i need to see pics of the gannet in flight.

It's been so long ,I can't remember what colour it is
between the kids swimming lessions and surf life saving and the weather
my buggying time has been very poor

you and me both gannet
