Wire wheels for triples with disc brakes front and rear?

Paul,

I think it depends on what looks you like your bike to have: Original; then go for 2.15 front and 2.5 rear, with 100/90 and 120/90, but if opting for more grip, take a set like Romeo's from OCT, or like mine (OCT, later laced the rims to 3.00 front and 4.25 rear, to properly cope with Continental RoadAttack CR Radials 110/80 and 150/65, the rear tyre in fact measuring exactly 160 mm width.

:o Easy on the rear brake Tiger, if you use it too much you'll knock the rust off it!

Welcome to the loony-bin.  ;)
 
I took the lightweight version for my 750: Talon Supermoto hubs from the KTM 950/990 for the front and KTM 640 Adventure for the rear wheel.
Rims are Morad/Akront 2.5" front and 3.50" rear. It requires several adaptors and spacers for the bearings and brake disks but it works fine
 
I'm also interested in wire wheels for my bike, who is OCT?
I'd really like to run with no tubes, there must be a wheel specialist who can build these wheels??

If your anywhere near the USA or can swing the transport costs,Woodys Wheels in Colorado do just about anything you want with wheels.There is a huge thread in the Vendors section on Adventure Rider website under there heading.
There are quite a few methods of running tubeless with spoked wheels,some are more risky than others.
You will get the best advice for Woody,they get great raps from the Adventure crowd.Around the world loaded to the gunnel's via as mainy TOUGH roads as possible type blokes or Vintage race blokes as well.
