Re: Minilite wheels
Each to their own, but there are a couple of issues with that Minisport alternative.
1) They look nothing like a 60's Minilite
2) They are out of stock anyway.

Re: Minilite wheels
How different are the Minispares wheels to the original Minilite wheels?

Re: Minilite wheels
Practically not at all.
Allowing for the fact that there were a number of different iterations of the "Original" Minilite wheel, of course.
They are certainly closer to the originals than the current Minilite, also available from MS.
The main difference of course is the introduction of the tapered washer on the Minilife. This is however a great improvement over the original flat washer & is impossible to see when the wheels are fitted.
The Minispares Minilife wheel has been my go to wheel for many years now.

Re: Minilite wheels
The Minilife wheels are based on original 60s wheels - I know the guy who's wheels were inspected & measured.
Metric is for people who can't do fractions.
