Debating selling these. If you haven’t heard about these wheels, they are the lightest on the market. Italian made, part of the Brembo group, and usually only seen on Ducati’s. $750 plus shipping family/friends or + 2.9% and I’m firm on that price.

No nipples, 32 (not 36) spokes thread directly into hub using 3x pattern. The hub is intricately machined to remove mass furthering weight reduction. Rear is 19x2.15, front is 21x1.6 and they are Brand new, never used. Fits 06-18 KX450’s and 04-19 KX250F’s. The rear only is 10oz lighter than the kite wheel on the bench.

at first, they didn’t fit Kawi’s new front axle spec. But i changed the bearings and seals out to different ID and they now work on the new bikes, but i already had other wheel sets so never put these to use.

correct. i’m also including front bearings and seals to fit the older 09-2019 kx450 or 09-2020 kx250f models if wanted. but right now they have bearings that fit the newest gen. these use oem spacers
