so I think I have located a rear wheel for my longbo , where to get a rear wheel for a zen king ? So if anyone knows where bto get a rear wheel please let me know . the best part looks like it has the mounting holes for the rotor , the other side looks like it is a drum (for my drum brakes .
come on doc's work your magic if any of the dealers in here have the wheel in stock and can take some measurements , Please let me know .
John

Yes, it looks that way to me too, but I can't tell how deep the brake part is...it may just be there so it fits well on the standard GY6 CVT, but not deep enough to take a drum brake...
It also may not have the steel insert that the drum brake pads stops on...
So.. I don't know...

I put the shoes in place, but they couldn't push out for enough to engage with the drum.

well , I think I will take the gamble , if there is no steel insert as you suspect then I will go for the rotor and complete brake assembly . Well its a $100 for the wheel and maybe another $100 for the rotor and brake assembly .
Sprocket what do you think do you know where to get a zen king rear wheel , perhaps for under $100 bucks

tvnacman check out some of the BMS websites...$100 sounds like a lot for 16" a rear wheel!
Maybe not...prices are on the increase everywhere...
