Replacement Wheel Options

[Richard Marler]

This has been covered many times before, but I thought could do with a refresh:

Has anyone looked at alternatives to the factory wheels in the UK recently? I know the stud pattern is odd so there is not a wide choice, but I am looking for something lighter than the standard and maybe a more modern design (subjective I know). Thanks in advance.

I believe the only other off-the-shelf wheel option in the UK is the Rota, now supplied through Skunkworx.

I have the Skunkwurx Rota Wheels, and they are very light, on my Atom 2 with Alcons, 3mm Spacers on the frontaxle are required.
The Skunkwurx website says, fits with Alcons, but they wont fit without spacers.

The ones that needed spacers were the first 5 sets made for development and sold directly by rota to various owners. The wheels were then modified and all future sets and the sets sold through skunkwurx don't need spacers.
