LOOK FOLKS, NO SPOKES
It has been announced that the light alloy wheels for passenger cars manufactured under the trademark “Ronal,” are now available for motorcycles. Among the advantages of their cast wheels over the conventional spoked type, Roñal claims the following: 1) No problems with respect to concentricity-perfect truth of rotation. 2) No problems with respect to tightness—no retightening of spokes required (especially for high efficiency machines). 3) Reduced weight—increased ground adhesion. 4) Easy cleaning—minimum of maintenance. 5) Suitable for tubeless tires—fully airtight (important for new types of tubeless tires). 6) More economical than assembly of wheel with numerous parts. 7) Distinctive appearance. 8) Mounting without any problems—all necessary parts and mounting instructions are included.
The wheels are available in connection with disc brakes only. The original frontal series disc brake is maintained, while for the rear wheel, a complete disc brake build-in kit is used.
The interested cyclist may choose between two designs: either an aluminum alloy that is resistant to corrosion and impact, for service on the road (Ronal-Cycle), or a magnesium alloy (Ronal-Cycle Racing) that has still less weight, but which, due to its sensitivity to corrosion, is recommended for competition exclusively.
Ronal-Cycle wheels are obtainable in two tints, silver aluminum or gold, for various models of the following matf of motorcycles: BMW, Honda, Kax^r saki, Suzuki and Yamaha.
