I must agree with Joe here, that the crome and copper look may not be the way to go, but black rims and hubs with copper spokes, now that is the ticket! Speaking from experience, do the hub! Do not cheap yourself out of doing, it is so worth it. It is the little things that get noticed. Just 0.2cents

I was talking with the guys at work ast night and thought the same thing, powder coat the hub. But I was thinking copper hub with copper spokes. And chrome rims. The black rims aren't working for me. Maybe black chrome?

I think I'll have to vote for the copper rims/hub and black spokes. 2 reasons. It would be different and would be kick ***!

On that particular bike I think the copper and chrome would look better than black and copper. It sort of stays with the theme if you look at the AC on his bike. Now if it was on a bike with more black than chrome, the black and copper would look sick.

I dig the black/copper spokes on the HD Wheels site. How does copper plating stand up to heat? Things that make you go Hmmmm.....
