The Fikse's were great wheels, decided to replace the wheels instead of changing the width.

They did not fit the new fenders right. so now they are looking for a new home.

Default I think the profile is the same.

Those are considered the rear wheels. Had to send them templates to ensure they would clear our brakes.

Default If you have a solution please let me know, I am trying to help drgolfnut to solve his issue too

he has Emotion and he wants to close that hub! but the problem is on the hub area it is so thin, there is not enough material to hold the hub locking spring type clip! unless he goes with hot glue way, but if he needs to say rebalance his wheels then he will have to do the whole mod over again! which is kind of a pita!

Please keep me posted on how to close it up! oh also the center cap is not cheap either, i was told $40 a pop! ouch
