Heavy duty rear rim

[N8dogg]

I dont know if this is in the right thread but my back coaster brake rim is tacoing and I need a heavy duty rim. What does everyone recommend that will have a coaster brake?

Is this considered a heavy duty rim? I don't want to spend over 70

Best one out there plus Jims hub adapter fits that wheel.

That's probably the best you are going to find in your price range....and just a head's up- Jim's adapter may not be available unless you are willing to wait for a long time.

Hey I'm no pirate just helping guys get around all the BS and long waits for the stuff they want. I was black listed 2 years ago when the hub came out. I just hate the rag joint.

Gave Jim a bad review about poor customer service and was told I would never get my paws on his parts,He was wrong. His hub adapter is awesome.

Did you ever get the rim ? If so how do you like that rim and the adapter ? I know this post was 2 years ago I want to see how it held up!

 

[N8dogg]

It held up good for a year then I had motor problems last summer that I still haven't fixed
