Wheelchair Clown Shoes

So I just built what might be the coolest set of wheelchair wheels...ever.

Phil Wood & Co wheelchair rec. hubs laced on Surly Clown Shoe rims 

topped off with 4.8 inch wide Lou rubbers!

Thanks to Surly, Phil Wood & Co., and Lance from Rails to Trail bike shop here in E-town, PA!

 All laced and trued-up!

Clown Shoe rims have these funny holes drilled out to save on weight and to show off your rim strip-swag.

Makes for a cool camera angle.

 The tires came in looking like a pair of helmets, covered in tread. 4.8 inches wide. Boom.

 Here's a couple shots comparing the new Surly Phil
(I'm gonna go ahead and call 'em) Big Ballers to typical wheelchair wheels.

 Here's the Big Ballers next to the 2.1 inch tires I typically ride. (Already atypical for wheelchair usage)

The quick-release axles make them swap right on.
Swagger like a cripple.
