Ive been looking for a set of these wheels for a while without any luck. There seems to be 2 "styles" of RL7, one that has fat spokes and the other very sexy tapered spokes. While searching I have noticed there seems to be more of the fat spoke style for sale so wanted to find out what the difference was. I have heard people mention new and old style but not sure which is which. how popular these were in the day as they seem to be like the preverbial rocking horse poo to get hold of. my 3 trains of thought are, one, they weren't that popular so not that many were made, two massively popular so no one wants to sell or three, Ive seen lots of ads stating cracked/ welded wheels so maybe made poorly and they haven't endured the sand sands of time!
I'm trying to figure out whether Ill ever find any or just wasting my time pi***ng in the wind.
Any thoughts?
