    Lots of places sell cast, billet, Carbon fiber, There is now a company selling acrylic plastic wheels. There are places that build wire wheels for vintage and flat track racing that are very light. Check Kosman racing products or Storz racing. Remember the lighter the wheel the higher the cost. The same goes for brakes too.

                Ok, we'll leave you alone. I've just ordered a set of S/S braided brake lines for my steed and I'm sure as hell gonna fit one to the the rear brake.

                    Its a finesse tool, not a brute stopping tool.
                    That about sums it up. I hit it when coming to a complete stop, low-speed manuevers, and to scrub speed off in turns (trail braking).
