Excel Takasago Wheels on a CB

[aw1skate]

Does anyone know model of Takasago Excel 18"/36H wheels would lace to a 80's CB type hub? I am not worried about changing spokes, just concerned about the angle working with the flat style hubs.

Not just spoke hole angles but diameter. Some Excel rims have holes that are too large for standard spoke nipples.

Yup, gotta pay to play....
IF you are looking for some cheapo dirt bike wheel off a 19XX CCLSLFHF then you are SOL

Which CB?
CB350, 360 have 36 spokes

CB450 has 40 spokes.

For a CB350,360, XSmikes has some nice 18" rims that are inexpensive. See my build for pictures.

I went for Buchanan's Stainless steel spokes....Pricey, but won't rust. Buchanan's is knowledgable and helpful in selecting spokes and rims too. Kenny Buchanan is a CB350 owner and is especially helpful on lacing tips and what fits.
