    Hi All,
    Want to change my wheels to a mag type.
    Want to get away from the normal spokes.
    As i dont have a lot of Harley experience, i dont know what other Harleys came with "mags"
    And out of those what would fit.
    Or what mods are needed to make them fit.
    Can you give me some info on any of this please.

    Thanks

    Daniel

    sorry, dyna street bob
    i have found someone who says they have a 21 x 2.15 to suit street bob.

    Am i right to think this would need to be a street bob hub relaced to another rim?

    Probably would be, I recently put a 21" Wideglide front rim on my Superglide and had to get the Superglide hub relaced into it.

    Look for other bikes of similar vintage to yours and with the same size forks (mid glide / wide glide). Shouldn't be too hard to find something. Seen quite a few guys put Sportster mag wheels on Dynas.
    Also, if your wheel happens to be a black 21" spoked wheel, I'd be interested in buying it after you do the swap.
