hi,

I am thinking of having my rims redone or replaced. The rims themselves are in very good condition and is silver. The spokes though have a few rust marks.

The spokes probably need to be replaced with stainless steel spokes, and if i want the rims black, probably annodised.

Or at least this is what I think


Please advise me on what you guys think. Is it worth replacing the spokes, some of the places where it screws into the rim are also rusted, so difficult to clean up.

Also is the cost saving worth it to redo the rims, rather than to buy new ones?

Thanks a lot.....
