Title: CMC Rims KT Hubs. Info please.
Post by: Mark1 on January 16, 2013, 02:52 PM

Have some CMC rims laced to KT hubs and would like to know what they may have come from. I cant find any info on them. They are stamped CMC 20 x 1.5 HE. Are these from any particular bmx or just some dodgy 20" shopper? I thought most bmx wheels were 1.75.......Any info would be great please guys. Cheers, Mark.

Hi CMC rims would have come on some of the lower end bikes like the Diamond Back Viper, Pro Star.

Thanks for some info guys. :daumenhoch:. The hubs have 94 stamped on them could this be the year? Also why the thinner width as opposed to the 1.75 norm?

1.5 is standarised bmx sizing also ! all steel ? the 94 may mean sept 84
