The 750 wheel seems a good option then :)

its easily modified however not by yourself in the shed,
The centre hole needs machining out for the axle tube + spacer
also the drive pins aren't quite far enough apart to locate into the 750 stud holes, will need to drill into the wheel just beside the styd holes for the drive pins

not exactly hard at all
On the plus side the cutouts are there for the disc nuts unlike the bros wheel

quite surprised at the weight, I thought it was heavier than it is especially the fact thats its 5" wide
The 750 wheel has less spokes so that woul reduce it a bit.

Can a 750 wheel be fitted on NC245 without mod just by replacing without clearing issues?

Stock 17 is about 4.3kg, delkevic 4.7kg.

Unless your running 250 slicks on a race bike I would stay with stock
