Hi peeps,

today i swapped the gold wheels for black ones in the EFE. As far as i know, it came from the factory with the gold ones. The black ones came from the EFE i bought from FBJ five years ago.
One thing i noticed (apart from the colour difference) is that the black ones are a little bit wider, front 16X2,75 (gold one is 16X2,50) and rear 17X3,50 (gold is 17X3,00).
Why is this? Did the EFE have narrower wheels on some markets? Or is the difference age-related? Are all the gold wheels narrower than the black ones, or is this a coincidence?

Nobody?

This is supposed to be the ACS specialists site?

Sorry mate never heard of the difference. I do have standard black wheels in my stock uk bike and a stock gold front wheel in my shed but your referring to back aint you

front wheels are also in 2 different sizes.

Which bikes got the gold wheels and which ones got black wheels? Is this market-specific or year-specific?
The bikes with this paint scheme (see pic) have both gold and black wheels.

Well my stock kat is a uk bike on a D plate 1986 with black wheels. Anyone got any other stock efes
