White wheels with white spokes

monkeypants · 24-07-2012 8:55pm #1

Does anyone know where I can get a set of white road wheels with white spokes? All I can find online is white rims with black spokes or stainless steel at best.

American Classics used to do a set.

Or maybe not, only some of the spokes are white.

Spinergy do white spokes on there wheels, but black rims:

What about a Custom set, pretty sure DT do a white rim, SAPIM white spokes (I think they do white but not sure) and tune white hubs could be an option?

Rims, spokes, hubs, pick two.

Should I just buy a white rim/black spokes set and have them powder coated? Can powder coating be that accurate?

Rattle can, SORTED.....:rolleyes:

Or be prepared to spend big money on custom builds!

Are you planning on cycling these in Ireland? You know it rains a bit here and white is a bitch to keep clean.

I have an old steel frame MBK Triathlon from the early 90s that I'm considering restoring. I'd like to get the frame powder coated red & white first of all, then considering what else I can attach to it, keeping the overall colour scheme to red & white.

Thanks. Would that give a good, durable finish?

Haven't a clue.

Are you wanting to run it as a fixed gear?

Pretty sure Halo do some all white wheel sets if that's what you're thinking of!

NO, it was a joke.

God no! It'll have a 105 cassette on it if all goes according to plan.

Some of the Bontrager wheels have white spokes, not sure about the rims. X lite or race lite as far as I remember.

My friend got a Scott Speedster S35 (or S30?) last year. I think that the Alexrims wheels on it may have been all white. If so, you could look to pick up a pair of these secondhand.

If you can pick the hubs, spokes, rim, nipples etc. from their stock, CRC will custom build you wheels at no extra cost, just for the price of parts.

Though I don't know if they have the items in white as you require, nor if they have the green, sequined hotpants which you will be Wearing with your white wheels.

I have a set of white rims on white DT swiss hubs that I could sell.

NB Spokes are black, but you can't see them when they spin.

They are identical to these

This US E-Bay site has them, so there would be a customs risk. Not sure if they're suitable for adding a cassette or any of that technical stuff..

I was wondering how long it would take for someone to pick this up.

Mycroft H · 25-07-2012 1:22pm

plus the brake pads will rub away any white paint there.....

Theres a Taiwan seller that has kinlin xr300 in white podwercoat, nice rims, like the halo aerotrack but 3mm deeper. Also has white spokes CN/macspoke, theres aero424 which is a copy of sapim cx ray. Ebay seller I think is bikelover, or that might be the brand of his hubs(noatec)

from USA you could try bikehubstore, customs may be extra but the guy is well regarded, he stocks most of kinlin rims in many spoke hole options
