So I am wondering if there is anyone out there that feels they dont use their Uly wheels to their full potential.

If thats the case I am wondering if anyone would want to trade some wheels Black City X wheels for some Uly wheels.

I am assuming they will fit its the same tire size.

Yeah they fit the same. The difference is the thickness of the material in the rim itself, you know, extra strength for the off-roader in us.

What you gonna do, get serious about jumping or something?


Oh, and no thanks for me on the trade idea.

haha jumping would be fun-speaking of I actually jumped the Uly over the weekend and in reality wasnt as bad as I thought. Then again it wasnt more than 2 or 3 feet in the air.

I would like to get the Uly wheels as more of an insurance plan.
My wife plans on riding some trails on the CityX (Mini Uly) and I want to beef it up as much as possible for as little money as possible-thus the trading idea.

I know a lot of us Uly riders out there dont take them off road so the need for the beefed up wheels is a moot point. SO I figure there has to be someone out there that wants to trade.

The "weak" stock rims do take a nice beating, as Cityxslicker and I can confirm. : )

Jon,

Pictures would be excellent. It looks like you live in Eau Claire so we wouldnt have to worry about huge shipping costs either.

I can get you some pics of the City X wheels tomorrow afternoon.
