BASIC TECHNICAL INFORMATION - This is by no means everything. We can't cover everything here. So ... please call for any additional information you may need.

RAW WHEELS:
These wheels are not prepared for chrome as delivered. They are in a raw state and need to be prepared before painting. Powder coating is not recommended and may void your warranty. Call before deciding on applying this process. Bearing bores are normally .001" - .003" diameter oversize for a slip fit and to accommodate after finishing problems installation problems. Use Loctite635 in any case for proper fit and bond. It is recommended that the customer sand the bores before installing any bearings and internal preload. Should you over sand or grind the bores, you can use a spring center punch to "rough up" the bore before installing the bearings. When installing bearings, it is recommended that you use LocTite 635 bearing retainer to fill any voids in the bore. The bearing retainer will fill bores that are up to .007" oversize. Read the LocTite instructions before installation and observe the proper "set" time for the LocTite 635. We also measure and fabricate the preload for these wheels. We do not stock an inventory of preloads and hope they work. Each preload is machined to "match" the wheel you order. The spacer included with your RAW wheel is marked with a number that corresponds to the wheel number. The wheel number can be found on the flange or near the valve hole inside the tire rim. Make sure you install the correct internal spacer with the correct wheel number when you order more than one wheel. Installing the wrong internal preload is a big no-no. Serious damage to your wheel or motorcycle and serious bodily injury may result.

VALVE STEM HOLES (RAW)
When you order our wheel we will normally ask whether or not you know the size of the valve stem hole. If you do not, we will drill a pilot hole 5/16” in diameter in the center of the drop center of the rim. We will do this because we do not know if you will be installing a tubeless or tube type tire and the valve stem will vary in size. Should we pre-drill the hole for a tubeless valve stem, this pre-drilled hole will be to large for a tube type tire inner tube. The stainless stem valve stem we provide is for a tubeless tire and the hole you will need to drill is 7/16” diameter. The 5/16” diameter hole may cover a wide range of inner tube tires.

CHROMED WHEELS:
We control the bearing and preload installation. No need to worry about making the correct preload or whether or not the bearings were installed properly. No "end play" settings are required.

WARNING - VALVE STEM HOLES – CHROMED - WARNING
Basically the same as RAW wheels, except we will make sure that you have made this decision before chroming on which tire you will mount. Drilling a hole “after” chroming will be your responsibility. Any peeling or chipping of the Valve Stem Hole will not be covered under the warranty should you change your mind.
 
SPACERS:
The customer is responsible for all wheel external spacing. NO EXCEPTIONS.

POWER WEDGE ™
Invader wheels have added the Power Wedge to its line of non-OEM wheels.
This feature is REQUIRED on all rear wheels in 5 spoke configuration for all rims wider than 3.50" The Power Wedge(tm) adds superior strength to all RIGID FRAME and high torque motor bikes. Should you desire your wheels without the Power Wedge’s for show purposes, you must sign a waiver. NO EXCEPTIONS.

TIRE INSTALLATION:
Installation of tires on Invader Wheels using automated, pneumatic, or hydraulic tire changers may cause wheel damage to the spokes at the hub weld junction in the radial and/or axial direction. This may happen on all motorcycle wheels. Use caution when applying pressure when breaking a tire bead or installing a tire. Make sure the wheel rim and hub are both supported before applying pressure to the tire and rim before removal or installation. Broken, scratched, dinged, abused, bent, or cracked wheels due to excess pressure, twisting, or any other physical force during these installation processes shall void the warranty.
