And for the king of all racing wheels, the Carbon Fiber BST's...

The weight of rear is 1.62kg (Marvic 2.1kg)

$2300-$2400 retail

All of the wheels in this thread all use the NSR50 sprockets, spacers and rotor sizes folks. They fit the NSR50 and NSF100F and the Monkeybike applications that take NSR50 wheels.

The choices are getting greater and you are only limited by your pocketbook on how fancy you want to go..

I've personally owned the 3 and 6 spoke NSR50 wheels, and the Galespeeds in polished aluminum. I don't have any bikes to run any of the other wells, and Marvics for the time being are only going to be imported in the gold-magnesium color.

In my honest opinion, for racing applications, I'd run the Marvic's, the galespeeds or the BST's and for a custom build, would run the Rhythm Asterisks.. If I were to purchase another set of aftermarket wheels, it would be the Asterisks for my 2003 Monkey. But I digress...

And yet a new wheel is getting ready to hit the market and just rendered the galespeeds obsolete at a cheaper price tag...

More details to come for those of you who haven't already bought wheels for your project ZB, NSF100's, NSR50's and Ape 50-100's..

Anyone want to buy a brand new set of Galespeeds in polished aluminum?
