Hello, Well the old Dominator is nearing completion and i have decided to build a bolt on/off racing chair for it. I have an old Watsonian hub from the right period but need to find a 10 or 12 inch alloy rim. Any body know if such things are still made and on the shelf or would it be a costly one off?
Cheers
Kevin.

Hi Mick,
No needs to be a spoke wheel, about wm1 in width. I have mini cooper s wheels for the 67 GP sidecar. This one would be to 59 spec. Thanks tho.

Hi, You may find that a rear wheel rim from a youth moto X bike has the size rim you want. If you can find a flanged alloy Dunlop in 10 or 12 inch that will be a real result! Good luck.Hello, Well the old Dominator is nearing completion and i have decided to build a bolt on/off racing chair for it.
