salut les amis, what is the width of your rims, for track use? I'm currently riding a 4,5x18" period Marvic-150/70 avon racing rear and 3,5x16" -120/70 , but I've found a pair of new 3,5x18" and 3,5 x 16" ( for front) 3 spokes magnesium PVM wheels. What do you think about it?

Hello, for the rear I prefer a circle by 3.00 inches or 3.50 inches that you could put a rear tire of 130 or a maximum of 150. I prefer the front wheel 18-inch, 16-inch circle for my modest experience closes to the front and has a too rigid casing that does not follow the unevenness of the road. So '3:00 to 3:50 rear rim. 2:50 Front rim Rear tire dunlop k 145 - 3.50 to 5.00 18. Front tire I am using a 90/90/18 road runner and a beautiful avon of confidence on the front axle. This is my humble opinion from a humble pilot. Ciao Carlo. |

Thanks carlo, 3,5x18" will be perfect with a 150 avon ( I'm in love with Avon racing  )You are certainly right with 16" rim, but I'm affraid in having a "heavier" front end with a 18" rim....I have to "finish" my 2 new 16" tyres, so.... Carlo, I'm totally sure you're an humble man, but a great pilot....world champion in italy ,no?  I'm only world champion in my home ( for my youngest son....)!!! hope we will meet on track in italy or in france!!! salut Philippe |

The 16-inch tires, MUST BE VERY GOOD! ciao Philippe, you are very kind and generous with your compliments, I also hope to have a coffee with you some circuit in French or Italian! Carlo. |
