Alpina Tubeless Wheels

http://www.alpina-wheels.com/shop/alpina/triumph/triumph-thruxton-r/

A set of these excellent wheels for my Thruxton R work out at approx. £1,400 delivered.

Its a big wad of dosh to be sure but when you think about it, that actually aint bad.

For a kick off this will enable me the to run tubeless tyres (dickydido will tell you how inconvenient a puncture in the middle of nowhere on these tubes tyres is) - and the other major benefit if that they're likely to be half the weight of the stockers. There's various colour options too - though I think id go all black. I paid £500 for a tidy(ish) set of wheels for my road bike (cycle) and got a great deal at that. They offer wheels for various Triumph models (and other brands).

Maybe if a few are interested we could approach Alpina UK and try to negotiate a group deal?

Just a thought.

 

..of course the other way of looking at it is, the stock wheels aint really that bad - and £1400 buys a lot of fuel

 

I'm less keen on the look of the Kineos to be honest.
