Stainless Spokes For BMW Tubeless And Conventional Wheels


 

We believe we are the only people in the world manufacturing stainless steel spokes and stainless steel nipples for BMW tubeless wheels. The nipples have 5mm hexagon heads and are made slightly longer than standard so they completely cover the thread on the spoke, giving the wheel a much neater appearance. Spokes and nipples are made of top quality, European made stainless steel and are brightly polished.

 

The BMW tubeless wheels are a unique design and cannot be trued in the conventional way. The rear wheels also need a special jig for trueing and for these reasons, most wheel-builders won't touch them! We are able to offer a full wheel building service, including dismantling your old wheels (which is not as easy as it looks) and reconditioning your hubs and rims as required.

 

We also have a spare pair of late model 1150 GS wheels (19" front, 17" rear) so we can offer an exchange service for people who don't want their bike to be off the road.

 


Prices

Stainless spoke and nipple sets for tubeless wheels £57.00

This may seem expensive just for removing the old spokes, but it is very rarely 'easy money'. The spokes get corroded into the rims and usually need to be carefully hammered out, one at a time. In the drum brake hubs, the nipples also get stuck in place and have to be hammered out or, in some cases, drilled out. If you can dismantle the wheels yourself, you will save money and we certainly won't complain!

Rims and hubs can be bead blasted, polished or powder coated, as required. We can also undertake drum skimming and can fit new bearings and seals to your hubs. If you require brand new wheels, we can supply these with our stainless spokes and nipples for about the same price as BMW charge for wheels with chrome spokes and zinc plated nipples. Please phone or email for prices.
