There is a Zaskar LE but think I might part with that one.

Not entirely sure what you mean mate?

You referring to Tuffs?

Rojo · « **Reply #38 on:** December 31, 2013, 06:47 PM »

Sorry mean these

Retrodan72 · « **Reply #39 on:** January 01, 2014, 04:27 PM »

Hi mate, sorry for the late reply.

I've never seen those wheels on any bike before, but it's your bike and you can put whatever you want on it.

The normal type of mag wheel are Skyway Tuff II's.

No worries.

I have a few sets for mtb's bikes and they did a set for bmx aswell .

Quite like the look of them, not everyone's cup of tea though.

No, but you'll be showing some originality, and that's always recognised on RAD.

Will see if can find some.

Have seen a few people in the US going mad over the spin wheels
Usually see them on mid school bikes, think they're quite rare tho

I see maybe expensive to get a set then.

Will keep eye out for other wheels instead.
