Finished assembling the 17 x 3.5 inch supermoto rim to the DR drum hub yesterday. The spokes will need to be shortened and re-threaded to suit the DR hub. I fitted the wheel with a 110/60 tyre which goes between the fork legs with about 5mm clearance either side. Will be interesting to see if a 120/60 will fit as recommended for this rim, but I do not think going down a size will matter. I will have to grind off the cable guide mounts on both sides to ensure clearance. Very happy with the result.
