Would be cool if we could get a photoshop of these on the Scrambler. They look like they'd really match with the styling of the Scrambler. They should be a great seller (and/or an expensive one.)

Alpina is top quality on tubeless spoke wheels

Maz say's "No", though :crying:

you can change the colours if they ever end up becoming available on the scramby...

2 rim colours are allowed, soke, nipple and hub colours are all customizable

What's the weight of these compared to a regular icon wheel. I'd love spoked wheels but I don't like the added weight of the classic ones.

 

[Karlo]

sorry for my ignorance but seeing these thread about these wheels what is the difference about the icon and classic wheels BTW I did not kn ow the extra 6 kg for the classic were the wheels

The Icon wheels are alloy and tubeless and the Classic wheels are spoked and tubed. and the Icon wheels weigh approximately 6 bags of sugar extra than the Classic

Would you believe someone named Mixup?

You have it backwards, Mixup. The Scrambler models having spokes and tubes weigh 6 kg more than those having cast wheels. That's due to the weight of the inner tubes. Without tubes, wire spoked aluminum wheels probably weigh a bit less than the cast wheels; and that's where the very expensive Italian beauties from Alpina could come into play. Wire spokes and aluminum rims are light, strong, flexible, and can be had in multiple anodized colors, such as blue rims, red spokes, silver hub, and green spoke nipples. I want them, although not in that color scheme; I hope someone decides to manufacture them for the Scrambler.

Quite right fastwoman typically typing faster than my thinking, they do look fab.

The rims on my Classic will be converted to tubeless at my first tire change.

Hi Fastwoman, there is no way an innertube could weigh 3kg, 500 grams is probably more like it, the classic is 6.5kg heavier though which seems a lot, mudguards, seat, innertubes all weighing a bit more than the icon adding up to the 6.5kg I guess.

 

[Mark CR750]

I've just noticed that the urban enduro is 6kg heavier than the icon so on balance I recon the spoked wheels themselves are heavier than the cast alloy ones, say 2kg'ish each, plus another 1kg'ish for the 2 innertubes, plus a few grams here and there for different seat covers and mudguards, it all adds up, won't stop me getting a classic though cos I prefer the look of the spoked wheels, .......dynamically that weight couldn't be in a worse place though!.

Interesting video, Tony. That tape must be super sticky. Have you seen this stuff work reliably and long-term in the real world? Rubber seems so much tougher than plastic tape, it worries me.

Those Alpina wheels are gorgeous. Expensive as heck, but gorgeous.
