Wheel Reconditioning in Victoria?
« on: May 30, 2013, 11:46:14 am »
Looking for some advice - I want to get the wheels on a KTM 250GS 1981 reconditioned and would prefer to keep the business in Victoria.  I'd appreciate a recommendation from forum users.  I am aware of and have used business interstate, but thought I'd keep it local this time
Work includes respoking and powdercoating

Thanks very much for the referrals - I reckon I'll have the wheels covered now with these leads.

Now... any thoughts on handlebars, magura levers, throttle assemblies and cables (KTM 250GS 1981)
