Indeed.  Nice.  You say "build"; what'd you have to do?

[fotoguzzi]

do you have tubes now?

[guzzi ride]

The wheels are tubeless (sealed with o-rings at the nipples ). Rear is from a Stelvio and the front from a Griso SE

[fotoguzzi]

NICE!

Will you Norgeites please STOP  putting up pictures with Norges on wire wheels

I keep thinking just how good my B11 would look on wires

Kirby,

The wheels look great. How much have the bars changed your riding position?

Purchased new or just sourced from the usual suspects on eBay? 

They look great.

Probably better than the Norge's Tris, given that the B11 is a lighter looking bike to begin with. I'd say more natural if truth be told but the black ones look good for a tourer IMO.

Thanks, E bayed the wheels other wise close to a grand each from MG.

See there you go again Huzo - here's mine with the panniers off 



Still the bike did get home a bit of a mess that day with all the wet/mud/nastyness on the road

Maybe I need 2 sets of rims - the 3 spokes for late/early in the season and the wires for the sunny days

Or two complete bikes, save the cost of a set of wrenches to change them !!

..... and that would be an interesting discussion with my wife

I don't perceive the difficulty Tris, just buy the second one for your wife and if she doesn't want to ride it, then......?
