Default some pics with the 21" installed

Finally got my 21" rim installed after waiting a damn long time for it to be done. Stock nightster hub laced with twisted chrome spokes on a 21" rim. I think the tire would look better a little wider but it still looks pretty good in my opinion. Haven't noticed a difference in handling so that's cool...

Before



After

I've seen a few guys going to the 21" but yea I like how it turned out. Handling feels great too, but i'll open her up a bit more after i get the waxy coating off my new tire
