Grimeca Cast Alloy Wheels

[ianlucas006]

I have a fair few of these that came back from Barcelona. More rears than fronts as far as I recall. £20 each plus delivery Let me know what you want and I will have a look. May try to post pics later.
Thanks Ian

Ian,

I’ll try to put you in touch with John Parberry- he isn’t online much (at all) but I have heard that he has just bucked both in his strada (disc front drum rear) so he is actively looking for a pair

Pictures attached. Some already spoken for so at the moment there are 3 rears with drum brake, 2 gold and one grey that are good. One gold one has a tiny ding on the rim but I don't think a problem. There are also 2 Excalibur / NewYork 16" rears that are good.
There are 3 other rears. One is a 1.85 rim so from a 250. One is a 350 drum rear, the other a 350 disc rear. All have damage to the rims and are not useable without repair. If anyone wants them let me know other wise my mate who does a lot of casting will melt them down and turn them to something useful. Thanks Ian

Hi, do you have any straight 500 rears available? Cosmetic condition immaterial as I need to get the front refurbished anyway.

Ah. So that spare I've squirreled away "just in case" isn't rare or special!

[ianlucas006]

Hello Dick. If you need a disc rear which I think most 500's are then the answer is no. I think I had one but it has gone. Cheers Ian

[ianlucas006]

But I can check with a mate. He has some Rotary Norton spares and I am pretty sure they used the same wheels

Hi. Norton and Morini 500 Grimeca rear wheels are the 'same' but the disc mounts are machined differently.
The Norton/Morini 500 front wheels are exactly the same.
PS Norton discs won't fit on a Morini, different offset, thickness and diameter.

Thanks for the info. Very useful. Will pass on to the Norton crowd as well!

They'll be worth more again if they can be sold as Norton surely? Could we say they fit Vincents too?

Only if silver with red/black pinstripes?

There's one on eBay currently, relisted as it didn't sell the first time https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/135662825158

PS: The seller also has a 250/125 rear wheel available https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/135662838187
