Rolled rims

[sandyrun]

Does anybody have good pictures about rolled sandcast and K0 rims? there is so many stories, about perfect round rolled rims, and less rolled rims, is that true?  I have low vin 800x  K0 with rolled rims, they look original, but not sure if they are same with sandcast model? and correct for sandcast restoration? thanks for help.

Where've you heard those stories?

Hi
Not sure I've ever heard of other than a rolled rim on early bikes. There are different rims on later bikes but only one rolled edge rim. Some of the less than reputable sellers try and pass off a 2 hole hub wheel as a Sandcast but they are very different rim profiles both on the edge and the centre spoke hole section. Given your low VIN I would guess you have a (one type only) rolled rim

I had another thought. How about you post pictures of what's on your bike and we can then advise.
