Anybody got any decent chrome plated steel rims, one WM2 x 19" 40 hole, and one WM3 x 18" 40 hole.

might have some stock cb450 DID's... will check.

I was thinking CB450 might do it. They used 19" right?

Matt, are they 40 hole?

This is for a friend, not for me. So don't part with anything you are attached to. It's a restoration of a BSA 441 Victor.

ahhhh good to know what hub you need rims for so you don't end up with rims that the nipple holes have to be enlarged to correct angles

I may have something, will look shortly

I had the guy over at my shop last night trying to explain to him the subtle points of hubs/rims/spokes.
I know nothing about BSA's, hopefully they don't have some whacky conical hubs or something.

ya, the ones I have are regular chromed steel DID's off a cb450. 19" front & 18" rear 40 hole both ends. Just let me know if that will work.

 

[jbranson]

Well I know the BSA Victor used those sizes....just not positive about spoke angles. They'd be close I think. I'm going to see the guy tomorrow and find out what his progress is.
