Nice to meet you the other day Matt, but.....before you arrived, I was quite happy with my perfect, minty 16" 12 spokes...
"But look at my RS 17" 7 spoke diamond cuts"
says he....all smug-like
And since then.....nothing else will do....
Have you seen the price of them!!!
Word to the wise...watch out if Matt comes a callin'...
DON'T let him show you those d**ned photo's on his phone....NO..not those ones...
The ones of his beautiful 7 spokes..
I can withstand anything except temptation!
First I have to get the wheels...then tyres...how about a set of those nice chrome valves..then fitting..and balancing..oh the pain...............

Heya Brian

sorry about that but after turning up in the battered TD to be greeted by a bloke who has a 24v with less then 30K miles on it, a racing puma and 2 very nice bikes, its the least i could do LOL ;D, seriously though the RS 7's are a rare wheel, and finding a good set it harder still, try to avoid referb ones as they tend to have been painted silver and lost that machined diamond cut finish

Again watch out for the ones advertised at rs7's but are actually the 16 inch version

just to help you want a set heres the big version of the pics

I reckon trying to afford a set of RS 7 spokes is a MIGHTY big problem!
