Well since some idiot left a 4x4 (wood) in the middle of the highway, I just replaced my front wheel and tire. Now I find out there is a smaller dent in my rear wheel! Will this fit my bike?

Thanks!

Yes I got it... paid 200 for a bare front wheel earlier this week. Got this one with rotor, sprocket, and tire for 150 shipped

You rode over a piece of 4X4? Riding at night? I missed a piece of wood in the H.O. Lane with my wife behind me, once. Traffic traveling 70+ mph. I was able to see it and swerve, thank God it wasn't too long. Did you paint those wheels? Good buy, bad riding luck, good you didn't go down. Cheers

Actually, this was Sunday afternoon. There was a car in front of me that it barely passed between their wheels. It came out from under their car and the following thought went through my head. "That thing is pretty long, I might be able to swerve around it. If I do try to go around it and barely clip it while i am leaned over, I am definitely going down hard. Guess I gotta just try to ride it out." It threw me about two feet out of my seat hitting it straight on, so I can only imagine if I was leaned over. I have been bitching about buying new wheels all week and my buddy at work summed it up best. "Cheaper than skin grafts"
