Dronell CD15, forged and extremey lite. Carlsson makes a similar one called 1/16s - not as lite, surprisingly....

Cool wheels!

Those wheels are awsome! looking good, 19s I supposed. Who makes them. I know man, Carlsson's are heavy, my 2/6 almost weight 30 lbs just the rims....

Another fast reader, LOL They're Dronells and yes 19s. The Carlssons are also forged and much liter than the cast wheels but still heavier...probably cuz it has one extra spoke
