Wheel differences
Hello,
Can anyone shed any light on the difference to the 10 spoke Vortex (RRC005341MNH) and the Apex (RRC005341MVV)?
I've looked on the Rimmer's site but the photo shown seem not quite the same. I don't know if it is the angle or whether the spoke depth is slightly different. I can't see them making different versions for such low volumes. Is it the same wheel with, perhaps, differing paint finishes?
Anyone in the know?
cheers
Kev
It looks like the Rimmer's site has the wrong photo for the Vortex, they look exactly the same as the Apex in the photo and they are definitely not the same or anywhere near similar.

I counted them in and I counted them out (with apologies to Brian Hanrahan) - 005, 007, 019, 051, 103, 288, 354, 455, 577, 700 - the story continues.
You beat me to it, Nich!

I think the Rimmer's image for the Straights is wrong Herman, it looks like an Apex to me.

Have to admit, that I think that Vortex's look amazing on a Mk 2 75!
