I was sorting through some alloy rims today and ran across a 23" akront . 23" by 2", 36 hole . It is shouldered . Can anyone tell me what this rim came off of ?

...and didn't everyone try and re-work a 21" back in so the geometry and tire choice was better?

Yup. I have one of those 23" wheels... on a shelf where it belongs. My CR125RZ sports a 21" wheel :-)
