Made for hauling significant amount of stuff on the back of those. the hubs are threaded for Arai Drag brakes , Tandem axles much longer than the 135 in the BD.
Sounds interesting. I'm not really sold on needed anything more than a well built, 36 spoke, 4 cross, 26" wheel with good hubs though. We'd be hearing about all the broken wheels on Big Dummys if that were at all inadequate.
