I am wanting to seal the spokes on my Shadow Aero and read that many use 3M 5200. I found some today at Bass Pro, but it does not say anything about adhering to metal, only wood and fiberglass. Is this what I want to use? It is white and they have some that is quick cure 24 or 48 hours and other that takes 7 days to fully cure.

Sorry I have an R. If you dont want to seal there are some C and R rims for sale on the OA. Or you might get a deal at a trike conversion place.

I've sealed up several wheels in the last few years, using Gene Berrier's procedure. It works really well, if you're careful about it. Last year, I got permission to re-use and expand on Gene's instructions. I wrote a detailed how-to guide, with pictures. You can get that here.

Ride safe, y'all!
