Got the Bitchin' 8.5" rear wheel, all ready for the rubber. Will get it mounted today. Pics don't do the wheel, sprocket & rotor justice.

Installed the Bitchin' rear wheel shod with the Dunlop elite 250. The tire fills the fender quite nicely with no rubbing.

I love how the wheels have a smooth outer lip.
I had a talk with Rich at BSC cool guy.

BTW, how do you like your Big City Baffles?

Your bike is sweet! i think you have convinced me to get the same 21" front wheel. Are you going to put a fender on? if so which one?

baffles sound good, made it a bit quieter, but has a deeper tone to it. still at 98 decibels so I can be heard.

Thanks. The Bitchin' 21" i went with is wider than stock which looks a lot better. i am going to run fenderless for now. The only fender that can be used is the one from Bitchin', Rich makes it for the wider tire.

thanks bro, I just wanted to see how much of a diffence the smooth lip makes. I think it will still match with the HD chrome version. What do you think?
