I want to make a Solid Steel Deep V rim for FGFS and sell it to all the trick tarck kids. Wait no why not a Solid steel disk wheel.
Yes it’s $700 a rim, but You will NOT BEND THIS RIM EVER.

[quote]Hi Hardcore,
My name is John Black and I am the president of Velocity Worldwide. I hope you can read English because I can not read Japanese. Judging by the words I read just below the picture of the Chukker rim, I can see that you are not at all happy with it. I understand and I would like the opportunity to make things right. We take pride in our work and I am surprised that a rim in that condition would have ever made it out of the factory. Besides the gap at the join, it looks like it has several “dings” around the outer edge of the rim as well? Did it really arrive to you in that condition? If so, I truly apologize and would very much like to fix it and make you a satisfied Velocity customer. Is the problem with the front wheel, the rear wheel, or both? Please contact me and let me know. I will have one of our master wheel builders build a wheel, or wheels for you. No charge, of course. Our builders are fussy, everything is built by hand and they put a tensiometer on every spoke to make sure it is dialed to perfection. In the future, instead of spewing negativity around the globe, I suggest contacting the company directly that you have the problem with. Most of us are just regular human beings that want to provide their customers with good products and services. When we fail, most of us have a deep sense of responsibility to correct the problem. My email address is john@velocityusa.com . I hope to hear from you.
Very best regards,
John [/quote]

Yes the results haven’t been all that impressive to tell you the truth. I ran a materials test today and found that they use 6063.
