Gorgeous bike Panhead. Wondering if you've had any issues with the wheels since you started the thread. I was also on the verge of dropping 800 a wheel. So, is the verdict in on Ultima's King Spoke? And a side note, how hard are they to clean?? Thanks!

Thanks bud. I've got over 8000 carefree miles on them now and couldn't be more pleased with them. They're an outstanding bargain IMO, and all others I've heard from seem to be equally as pleased with them. I haven't heard of any negative comments on them at all. I'm running tubeless and haven't had to add any air since mounting them last February. Best $500.00 mod I've ever done with my ride.

IMO, all spoked wheels are a PITA to clean ..... but the look is well worth it to me

Good to know bud. I put a post up in the Softail section to advise them as well. I know some of the Softail Twink owners have been waiting for them.

Have used these in a couple of builds now and had no complaints . Just check the bearing grease .

i just got one of these thursday from the same place as you mdanehart ,i mounted my tire on saterday and went home to put it on figured id give it a spin before i took it off the jack and the thing is warped and i mean bad ,too late to call where i got it from so ill do that monday hopefully they stand behind the product ,so i guess the next post from me is gonna be how helpful they where or how unhelpful they are
these wheels are cheap way cheaper then the other brands and now adays
every buck counts not too mention they look great so hopefully this ends well
