where abouts is he? do you have any experience doing this as well?

[alex g]

[dainese]

nice....

do you know what is the usual amount of hub shaving that one can take off? I will call him. but if you can give an indication, that would be good as well.

It comes down to the size of the hub, what its made from and the design of it.
I've seen wheels that wouldn't be safe to shave even a mm off them, and some with room to lose 10mm...

yer hes been building rims for too long, basically the deeper the straigth section of the hole is the more you may be able to trim, not the maybe in there

[dainese]

yeah, didn't know they could do that. they can even weld the holes and redrill. sounds extravagant. but if i can claim 10mm, that will be on the menu.

sent him photos today...
