    By George I think I've got it!
    I like the pre-tension idea.
    I hope my wheel isn't too pretension-us!
    Sorry about that last one.
    Thanks, I'll post a pic when done.

    What is the cheap 380mm base wheel? I thought 914 wouldn't work because it has a different hub, is that right?

    This is a cool project and think I want to have a go at it!!

    Thanks, nice thread!

    Scott,

    This is probably the best thread concerning the variety, and part #'s of 914 wheels with their application and modification.

    Mike, are you asking about the diameter of the grip, or of the wheel itself? If the later, it is a 380mm wheel...just like the RS.
