Libra wheels
I looking to purchase a set Libra wheels for mydster. The seller told me they are 63mm bore. Does anyone know if they will fit the roadster front hub.
Thanks
Thanks

Re: Libra wheels
The widest part of the front hub is reported to be 73-76mm. Sometimes, if it’s thick enough, you can bevel the bore of the wheel where it mates to the hub. Look at your hub to see how deep you would have bevel.

Re: Libra wheels
I think that any vintage Libre will fit just fine.

Re: Libra wheels
Elbow grease is free, and Mother's Aluminum polish works well. You might want to first wet sand with 1000 grit first. It just depends upon the condition of the lips and how scratched or dinged they are.

Re: Libra wheels
Lots of pictures of Libras in many finishes, including polished lips in the wheel/tire thread:
