if you don't mind a mild hijack, I have some questions on that topic. Son of Weldangrind and I are planning a Supermoto build, and we have a set of USD forks with a 17" front rim, but it's too narrow for our liking. If we used your zip tie trick, do you think we'd be able to transplant the existing spokes to a slightly wider 17" rim? Do we worry about spoke count only, or is there a potential for dissimilar spoke nipple angles? Thank you.
