race rims info please!

[generallee]

Im having some race wheels built up... with ALienation 440 rims...  and the question I need answered is ... Im having a black front rim.. and on the rear should I go for
a black rim
a black rim with machined sidewall
or a chrome rim

also - would a ProperBike Co 36 hole sealed  front hub be ok for racing? what do you think? I'll be runing a v brake - so am thinking machined sidewall black rim might be best?

Personally, I'd go for 2 black rims.

Are you building up a new school race bike Steve?  Be good to see you at some of the races.

So do you think a rear machined sidewall best, or just plain black?

[dialledbikes]

Both rims all black.  Let the brake pads do the machining 

Or go for machined walls front and rear if you want matching.

Cool mike. Just pm'd you with some more questions!

  Just watch the axle length on the front hub,as freestyle hub axles are usually longer than those on race hubs.You don`t want an axle that looks wack on a tasty racebike!

So what are you building then Steve, Old school cool or new school cool.

And are you actually going to race it in the south series?

[generallee]

I have a 38 Special race frame, Alienation rims, odyssey race cassette, etc .. and am going to have a go at racing once Ive moved to Devon!
