Marchesini Wheels
If you're rockin' an aftermarket set of wheels you've got things on lock. Simply put, aftermarket hoops not only transform your bike aesthetically, but their lighter weight also livens both your bike and your street cred.
No doubt about it, good wheels are a big-ticket item, but if you can afford to approach the plate, everyone knows Marchesinis are a homerun smash. This month SSB takes a peek at the cream of the crop. So break out the bibs, we'll give you the material but we won't give you the cash-here's to wishful thinking.
16.5-Inch Forged Magnesium
These treasures are so expensive their price isn't even listed. How's that for baller status? They're rumored to cost upwards of 5Gs, meaning if you have to ask, you ain't got enough. However, if you can pay to play, these are straight off the racebikes and measure the lotto-winning diameter of 16.5-inchs. Simply put, nothing is doper and with a weight nearly 50 percent less than your stockers, who cares if it's nearly impossible to find a proper-fitting street tire?

17-Inch Forged Aluminum
Ok, so unlike magnesium these aluminum hoops won't burn a cool color while on fire, but then again who's going to light their Marchesini wheels ablaze anways? These rippers aren't much heavier than their magnesium big brothers, look identical and cost half as much-what's not to like about that? Sure you'll still have to punk your kid brother for his milk money, but hey, there's a price to pay for looking good and few things in life look as great as Marchesini rollers.
