Its "official", PAK BIKES LLC is a Alpina Wheel Distributor for the USofA.
Initially PAK BIKES will be selling ONLY
Alpina Wheels for Ducati Sport Classic motorcycles .
Pricing:
$2,150 USD + $35 USD shipping
$1,999 USD + $35 USD shipping (FLEDA customers pricing.)
Retail pricing is $2,495 USD + shipping
Rim, Spoke & Hub color and graphics choices:
Initially, PAK BIKES will be offering the Gold hubs with Silver spokes and rims. This combination seems to be best suited for the Paul Smart. Depending on the feedback from potential Alpina Wheels customers I may be able to stock additional color and graphic combinations here in the States. If someone wants a special color and/or graphics combination I can fill that order but it will take about a month from the time the order is placed to the when the wheels arrive at the customer's location.
I am guessing Sport 1000 owners will want color choices other then Gold, maybe Silver all around or some combination of black and silver. The choices are many! You can check out some color, color pattern and graphics choices at the link above. There is another link in the "PRICING" box that will take you there or you can go directly by "
CLICKING HERE ". These examples are from wheels NOT made specifically for the Sport Classics BUT it will give you some idea of the possibilities. The "checkered flag" graphic might work on a Black Sport 1000 that has the Ohlins Gold shock setups. In my most humble opinion the graphics might be a bit too much for a Paul Smart, especially the "stars & stripes" theme. ;-)
I am also working on specifying 4-pot/4-pad front break calipers for these wheels.
Let me know what you think and if there is enough interest I will start the ball rolling at this end to get some wheels State side.
Thanks again for all your support!!!
