Rob Leech Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 Evenin' all,just looking for peoples opinions on this really.I'm planning on machining my trialtech race rim and just want to know what people think of them as they are and if the plan sounds alright to you lot.All i want to do to it is simple machine a rectangular slot where the sport rim is drilled, 13-16mm in width and probably around 20-25mm long (haven't looked at it to work out widths/lengths yet), probably only through the second wall, leaving the inner wall whole.I have all the tools needed and have quite a bit of experience with it, so this wouldn't be a bodged job like some of the drilled rims that have been through here.Also im not doing this to be a weight wennie , just want to put my own mark on it really.All veiws are helpfull on this .Cheers, Josh.

Rob Leech Posted April 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 My idea any good ?Does sound like it would be nice , but i really wanted to avoide just drilling it, thought some simple slots would look quite plush, as it would only show up as a dip with a silver outline, as the inner wall wont be touched.Cheers for the comment pal .
