I'm so sorry~ I had sold all of the double 5 spoke already. :oops: :oops: :oops:

No prob. Do you know whether or not you'll be making another round of either the 5 spoke or the hurricane wheel?

Thanks for your understanding. :D
No, I don't have any plan to go another round for 5 spoke or hurricane. Since MOQ is required in each round, and I don't think I have chance to sell them all. However, I still have some Hurricane in stock, so you still have chance to consider hurricane type. :D

Oops, thanks for reminding me. I did not notice the 25% discount for dazzle rim in my eBay store is end. Since eBay only allows seller to set discount for 45 days. So I have to continue it again & again. :oops:
Well, I could no longer resist so I got a set! 8)

So once you sell the last three sets you have on eBay you're done offering them for good?

The only problem with this is that it now officially makes my current RC10 project a shelf queen. Which means I know have to go find another Gold Pan to rebuild as a daily driver :lol:

Why couldn't I have picked a cheaper hobby? :lol:

Count yourself lucky, our hobby means we don't go AA meetings, don't beat our wives, or spend time in rehab!! :lol:

From what I understand from this and other threads Emerson has no more Five Spoke (Split Stars) left for sale and will be producing no more of either design, however he has many sets of Hurricanes on stock that he will be releasing in small batches as each batch sells.
Experience is that marvelous thing that enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.

Thank you, Mark! You help to explain my situation very clear. :D

Now I'm "thinking" very hard to create new project to feed my factory, since my factory is very focus on metal bending & laser cuting. I can not be intoxicated in rim project too long time. Or my factory guy will kill me. :mrgreen:

^^ Looks great!! What tires are those, and did you have to glue them?

Bar codes, and they are glued ( check the glue bead on the fronts ).
