[QUOTE="nkt267, post: 4134, member: 245"] I had the same problem when I did mine.As I'm pretty thick skinned and will only take criticism from people who RIDE their bikes I painted the curved section of the rim black and ran the lines almost (about 1/16 inch) touching the join between flat and curved section.That works out roughly to painting the rim black 7/32" wider each side than the centre curve.The comercially painted ones I got done are maybe a touch wider but I'm not into concours.And I wouldn't be suprised if there is no official figure for this. If in doubt do what you find most pleasing to your eye,it's your bike after all. Stand by for another 100 versions.John [/QUOTE]
