Watanabe Center Caps for Rota/Koenig

[Jaymanbikes]

For those of you looking for Watanabe center caps to fit Rota Wheels and with some help from the Dremel the Koenig wheels, here is a link to a source in Japan that sells them.  Unfortunately they only come in Silver but I just painted mine to match my black Koenigs. Very reasonably priced and quick ship.

Pretty self explanatory but make sure you select the “Old Style” with the larger bore

So what size would fit Koenig Rewinds? 60mm, 63mm or 73mm ?

Dave, you will need to select the 73 but you will need to shave about 1 to 1.5 mm off to get them to fit.

So what size would fit ROTA RB? 60mm, 63mm or 73mm ? Do they clear the wheel center cap?

I tried them on my Rota RKR’s, the Rota wheel hole is larger than the 73mm so they won’t really work.  I think this company no longer has any more of the center caps anyway
