Has anyone seen these or tried them? What quality? They do appeal to my cheap side.

Thanks

Haven't seen any that are correct. The spoke holes are drilled for smaller diameter spoke circle brake drums, as on a CB160. You can assemble them on a CB72/77, but as you true the rims, the spokes will have a bend in them from the spoke nipple binding from the incorrect angle. Regards, Chase

I tried the same rims that I ordered through 4into1.com. They definitely did not lace up correctly, and there was a distinct bend in the spokes when tightened. Now I'll have to get a CB160 so I can use my rims. Another project...

Thank you. I guess I have to blow the moths out of my wallet.
