Ok guys im sure someone has done this before, tried the search but would take hours.
My gs 1150 wheel hubs are corroded, so whats new about that? well nothing, its just annoying the crap out of me,
so question is can i strip the spokes off and get the centres blasted clean and get them repainted and rebuilt without the new paint interfering with any clearance or tolorances there may be between the hub face and the spoke sitting(does this make sense?) im not up on wheel building.
Ive a guy who respokes wheels and that part is no problem, so he can strip and rebuild when i get them redone. The spokes look in really good nick so can i use the same spokes again?
I was thinking of getting the hubs(cetres whatever they are called,) epoxy powder coated with a powder primer a wheel refurbishment place does, they do a great job, just got an alloy rear rack off the adventure done with this then painted it for my SE project and its a great job and will keep corrosion at bay.
Oh, sorry one more! can the ABS rings be painted or will this interfere with them?
Does anyone see any problems?
Cheers
