Show me your 26" fat rims

[Mr. Kool]

Would like to establish a list of what's available on the market. I think it can be interesting for guys like me who are looking for wide rims but don't know of them all.

Would like a pic with the brand and maybe where to find them.

What to you think?

I've only used the 3G sets available here on this website. Where to find them in Switzerland or shipping there I have no idea. I like these 57mm wide rims because I could put a 2.125 standard tire (shown on the copper wheels) on or go fatter, with a 3" tire, shown here on my red wheels,

 

[Mr. Kool]

That's the look I am after. I love 3G wheels a lot but would prefer to find rims with spokes on the center. Shipping is no big deal for me, a friend in CA can take care of that.



Smoopy's has nice 65mm rims. Even nicer when polished.

 

[Mr. Kool]

In Europe we have a shop in germany selling these 64mm center spokes.

These 56mm side spokes.

They also have 80 and 100 mm.

 

[Mr. Kool]

Not sure about this but Felt wheels are 50mm. Is it right?

Just acquired this old Hiawatha. Here are some pictures of the tires.

Welcome to the website 9erniner! Post up an intro if you'd like.

Nice CWC made bike, looks like early 50's. Those tires are the standard balloon tire size, 26 x 2.125.

50mm on my 2015 Red Baron, think this size is the norm far as I know on most of them!

[Mr. Kool]

No more source for wide rims?

 

[Joe Monstermaker]

These days a possible source is buying a Mongoose Beast or Dolomite, just for its 26x4 wheels.
