I can only guess that they are using older modified BSA molds since the letters that are covered would be the results you would get if you ground off the SA on the mold itself, as you said.Stan Pope wrote:Interesting. Do you think that someone modifies finished wheels? Or might your wheels be produced using modified BSA molds? (Modified by milling a dimple where the S and A would be.)
There are no obvious counter balances and typically we are not allow to modify the wheels in any way.Stan Pope wrote:Are there counterbalancing blobs diametrically opposite? Or is that additional balancing up to the builder?
Things in general are kind of laid back up here... I'm sure no one would say anything if we use BSA wheels from the American kits or the B## wheels that come in our kits. In their unmodified form I can't see there being a big difference even if the balance is off slightly... you have to figure that they need to actually be round and have the axle hole in the center before balance matters much, LOL.
