Default cheap'ish 17inch wheel option

Check out the thread in the 700/900 section. Might be of some interest to u guys, with the offset only being 5mm different. Cant say for sure as I dont know about arch clearances and clearance to struts. But considering 700/900 and 240 wheels are interchangeable id say they must be very similar regarding the amount of room in the arches and clearance to the front strut. U should certainly be able to make them work any how.
A cheap ish 17inch retro wheel, which I think would look great on a 240

In theory if arch and strut clearance is the same, u guys wont need the 5mm spacers , with having a 5mm wider offset.
