Yea I totally agree. I think the white/green/black combo would look amazing. I'm probably going to get my stock wheels sandblasted and powder coated those colors. Hopefully it holds up well.

[@trailpro6391]

All wheels scratch, but the white will hide the scratches just as good as plain aluminum. I think the white rims with green hubs and black spokes would look slick on your KX. I'm also a big fan of the all black look on KX's.

I have 3 different size spoke lengths for my ktm 125 sx supermoto rims I can’t remember which place the longest ones go and which place the shortest go . The rims are identical to urs really, does it matter which side the spokes go in so long as the offset is correct for the disc brake and the rotor

[@trailpro6391]

Sorry for the delay, been waiting on my swingarm to get back from the paint shop. Should be able to get the next video done soon. Thanks

part two where is part 2.... im dying to see it to see if this is something i really wanna get my self in to

[@trailpro6391]

In this case the spokes were exactly the same which I noted and it would have probably created confusion if I tried to explain it without actually having that scenario in front of me. But I know where you're coming from.

[@toddwr450]

yo, mang! its time to call yer buddy, or forward these comments to him. i'd really like to see part 2. well done on part 1, and yeah, great looking rims. how-ever, im getting new spokes and rim in two days, and would love to see how you conclude part 1. eh! im subscribing to yer youtube with great anticipation for part 2. pls keep them coming. call him.

[@dbkaynewinchester9196]

does it matter if you do the outside spokes first or it doesnt matter? and how thick are those blocks?

[@matt3122]

I had 1 spoke break. I fixed it. I just had 2 more break. I have warp 9 sm wheels on a WR250R. What can I do to fix this problem? I tension the spokes by the sound test and by feel I’d say the are 3-4ft/lbs. I try not to over tighten them at all. Thanks.

[@adlix13]

My Honda spec is 3.5 in-lbs. So you're off by a factor of 12, too high. Check your bike specific spec and see if you can borrow a spoke specific torque wrench

[@imyour88]

I really want to do white rims on my kx125. Do you think they will scratch easily?

[@trailpro6391]

Hey Rob, I just finished recording part 2 tonight. I have to send the files to the guy who edits my videos tomorrow. He already has one of my other videos in the hopper for next week because he's backed up from other work. So, I'm hoping he can work on Part 2 toward the end of next week or the beginning of the following week. What's your situation? What kind of bike, rims, hubs, and spokes? Do you have a spoke torque wrench and truing stand? Thanks Rob

[@powerbanditz]

When will you be posting the video on how to true them?

[@karlosfz0769]

What is the most common hole in the rim size

[@garrydrussell]

It takes 7 years to true a rim?

[@TLDrider32]

when will the 2nd part be up

[@nnoffuture]

Video should be titled How to lace a rim and never ever true it

[@xMrShamWowx]

What kind of powder coat gun are you using?

[@TheClaw70]

1 year on and no part 2? C'mon, get with it!

[@GarySmythe]

Really, I agree, one year and no part 2. An unorganized or lazy company!

[@frederickhughes9920]

Hi How do you measure the hubs and the rim to get the correct spoke length for any wheel or hubs. I google online spoke calculator It give me bicycles. Is there one for motor bikes

[@frederickhughes9920]

A guy gave me two rims and hubs and some random spokes . I put the wheel together one side of the wheel had longer spokes how do I get the correct spoke . Anyone help !!!!!

[@Runescapian1996]

Can someone help me I need an 18" x 3" 32 hole rim!

[@alexandresimard4230]

When part2 ?

[@ElEtoo07]

how much for the rim?

[@Hoxxz]

I ask the same

[@rickydomingeuz7684]

Magkno po yhn gnyan

[@Foxxtrott1100]

you need to spend more time on theory. How does one identify outer & inner spokes and then correlate that to the wheel & hub assembly.

[@trailpro6391]

I got the wheels from Warp 9, I didn't do the finish. warp9racing(dot)com

[@Victorsadventures2774]

If you're sending files out to a video guy, you need to find a new video guy. Sound is mono!!
