Hi All,
I am building up wire wheels. I am purchasing 40-spoke hubs from Ken Perkins. I
am now exploring two things: Rims and brakes. I've read the archives, but am
open to any further information listers may have.
As to rims, most everyone seems to use WM2 or WM3 (1.85" or 2.15" width, respectively).
My understanding is that the "WM" specification is an older rim profile.
Such rims are over twice as expensive as more modern ones. Is there a reason
not to use a conventional, flat style front rim, something like:

or even cheaper:

Thanks for any input,
Jeff

Considering Ive got box stock 40 spoke, 21 inch, 2.15 Harley wheels, don't know
why they won't work.
Also worth considering is just using the whole assembly. I know conventional wisdom
dictates the 4 1/2 width isn't as good as the specified 6 inch width. However
I can personally attest to the fact they are fine, and for about 125 used,
they come with rotors attached that work great.
I have very basic Matco kart brakes that are simple and effective. As we used
to say, work good, last long time.
