ok I needed a wheel for a trike build and wanted a wide tire so this is how the wheel mods got started.
1.shows wheel and hubcap I built at first,, was going to go with one rotor- I cut about 1/2 off the drive pulley side of wheel at this point to made it look a little cleaner as front wheel.
2. when I decided to make it dual rotor I cut a additional 1/4 inch from pulley side of wheel and cut fingers back so that I could add my adaptor to wheel and both rotors would be aprox. same distance out-from wheel center.
3. cut a bearing recess location into outboard side of adaptor also counter sunk 5 - 3/8 mounting bolt holes and tapped 5 rotor 5/16 bolt holes.
4. installed adaptor and you can see the step in od of adaptor (where red layout goes to raw aluminum) where the hubcap will set.
5.shows rotor fitment to adaptor
- - - Updated - - -
ok this is what wheel looks like when done
1. hubcap center opened to 3.900" to fit adaptor od step and 5-1/4 mounting holes counter-sank
2. hubcap on wheel hub.
3.right side rotor installed.
4. just a look at how everything centered up..
there are more details on this in my 3.8 super charged trike build in home built trike's here at trike talk,,, but know that a lot of you guys are just looking for wheel info hope this helps!
