I Am Officially Commited

I will build a fat bike tandem.  I have purchased parts that I can no longer return--there is no turning back now!

Machined Double Wall Fat Bike Tandem Rims

What you see here are a couple of Weinmann DHL 101 double wall 32h rims that have been relieved of over 1/2 a pound each.  A one inch end mill on my buddies Bridgeport made quick work of the rims.  Get a good look now, because this will be the last time these cut outs see the light of day.  These puppies should still be plenty strong for tandem duty, yet save some of that rotational mass.
