Ok so I have purchased an NX5 rear rim from Japan with the help of Drew to replace my buckeled one(@Highside).
All looked fine in the photos until I tried to put the tire on, after some wrestling with the tire machine a little voice in my head said put the old rim on top of then new and check. What I found made me almost sh*t in my pants !
The new rims is an 18" and narrower than my original 17".
So my question, why the @#$% is there an NX5 18" wheel out there, are they meant for wet tires or what
I can't seem to think for what other bike it would be as all the other 400/750's have the wheel on the other side and the rotation is correct. With the correct amount of spokes and its an HRC wheel
I'm so disgusted at this stage that I don't even want to look in the direction of the NX5...
Any help will be greatly appreciated,
Mario
