New guy with a what is it

[X"N]

Hey all I picked this up for my son. We plan to rebuild it over the winter. I think its a 1969 Rupp Digger but I've never seen any pictures with 10" spoked rims. Like this has. Do I have something else or did someone just swap the wheels?

I don't know the make of it, but those rims look exactly the same as my kids old suzuki jr 50's rims. But who knows. Very interesting though.:shrug:

They all came W/6" rims.:thumbsup: Some one just added the 10" It will ride better and looks good with the 10" rims. Welcome to OldMiniBikes.:smile:

If you dont mind could you post or PM some specs on the rims? I have to buy new rims and tires and those do look good.

Be sure you know what your frame can handle before jumping rim diameters.
Your other thread shows a Rupp designed for 6" rims.
