Yeah I sent them a message. No response yet. Will keep you posted. The way I was thinking was if the rims are the same size and carry the same size bearing, then the only difference would be the brake mounting setup. On the one hand the raider has two rotors and the Stryker one which should mean I would have a set of exposed bolts on the other side which I could just cap or tidy up etc. So got my fingers crossed.
Aftermarket front Raider rim on Stryker
I've been searching but cant find a direct answer so I apologise if this has been covered already but... I know the Raider front wheel is the same size as the Stryker and I saw some aftermarket wheels on ebay for the Raider...

I'm wondering if these would be a direct fit. Also wondering from the pic how the rotor will mount since I think it bolts straight to the stock wheel and I see no threaded holes on this one. I know the raider has two rotors and the Stryker one, but figure I could work around that. Anyone ever bought a rim like this?
Thanks for the help.

Thanks yeah I saw that earlier but havent seen any response or follow up so thought I would ask again. Seems then that the rim should fit. I'm still trying to get hold of the company to see if I can get an actual photo of one since the rim in the listing looks like a generic type.Natedog said:cbrmatt at Performance Edge tried this over a year ago, but the thread crawled into a hole and died. I recal reading on the Raider forum that they are indeed interchangeable.
