has anyone tried



What mag wheel things? You mean like the old Mongoose BMX wheels? Those things weigh a ton and they weren't even magnesium they were aluminum. American Classic makes magnesium rims. They are very light but a bit flexy for bigger riders. I suppose if you got stranded you could use them to make a signal fire.



those interesting mag wheel things on a road bike?
