What DOES this eBay wheel fit?

GypsyR · 10-28-2024, 12:20 PM

Just curious. They oddly list what it does NOT fit but don't say what it does. I'd like one for my Templar but the correct one for it I think is twice this price so probably not a Templar part.

Check what the specs for your bike are, they do have the measurements listed.

110/90-18 Rear Wheel Rim Tire Tube Assembly for Disc Brakes Wheels.

Included: Wheel, Tire, Tube, Rim, Iron Hub
Size: 110/90-18
Rim: 1.85*18

If you cannot find your specs listed, take yours off and measure it.

Also, do you just need a new tire? or are you trying to buy a new rim? Do you need both?

I would ignore this product! How useless to advertise a product based on wht it does not fit. Ya think they will sell many, or have many return requests!!!

You want the Honda compatible wheel. The front wheel is identical to CRF250 and many others. I admit I don't have rear wheel info. My guess is that it is the same Honda CRF250

I don't actually NEED anything. I just thought it might be neat to have a pair of spare wheels dressed in mud tire trim while I commuted on dual sports or something. Going full-on supermoto would require more money than I care to invest in my Templar X but the idea has tempted me.
So while browsing around for reasonably priced options I ran across this screwy listing for a wheel and wondered what on earth it actually fit.

In that case just grab up a set of tires, it's not hard to swap the tires.

Here are some listed rims.

I assume those fit yours.

They're kinda expensive but have the measurements listed so you can always use them as a reference while looking up other ones.

Thumper · 10-29-2024, 11:01 PM

Yup. Those are the wheels. And that's the lowest price I have seen. I think KKE has a set for closer to $400. They claim Honda CR250 fitment (and other Hondas). I am sure it fits Templar.

GypsyR · 10-30-2024, 11:13 AM

What I had in mind was to do away with messing with tires. Have a pair of loaded wheels to quick swap. Loaded with rotors and a different sprocket for the on or off-road gearing. Used to have a race bike set up that way. It was quicker to swap a loaded wheel and tire trackside than just the sprocket when we needed a gearing change. (Aermacchi chassis.) Plus after some 45 years of tire changes I'm a little tired of them.

But we still don't know what THAT wheel fits then?

Thumper · 10-30-2024, 12:00 PM

That would be really convenient. You could keep a second chain optimize for the alternate sprocket.

I wonder which wheel would fit the Paladin. It is either a KTM or Kawasaki clone wheel, I think.

You can just respoke your stock hubs with new Rims. Issue is figuring out the correct spoke length if you change wheel diameters. You could always just buy long spokes, and thread your own like grandpa used to with a spoke threader. Spokes require a tube unless you seal your wheels with fancy Marine silicone sealer..

Way too much work. I had in mind a ready set of dirt only tires already mounted on wheels to swap for weekend off roading after using it as a commuter bike during the week. Considering the price of a complete wheel assembly from Xpro building a wheel the hard way makes no economic sense to me.
They used to have listed a wheel complete with tire and a brake rotor even. I see now it's just the wheel, hub, and spokes assembly now though. Missed out on that earlier deal.

No comment on the Templar specific stuff but I have a similar setup for my Hawk 250 and it is great being able to swap.

One set of wheels with 100% street tires, one set with dual sport tires.

I put discs on each set just because I already had to put some helicoils in the hubs already and was worried about them.

I just swap the rear sprocket over and rebleed the brakes.

GypsyR · Today, 02:11 PM

I'm thinking of different sprockets even. Lower gearing for mud work and maybe even a little higher one for the street wheel.
