Try The Wedge Shop. D&D might have one too? I hope you dont plan on driving on the street a lot with the aluminumn flywheel.

As far as I know the aluminum flywheels sold have a steel insert.

Robert, Be easier if you stated your desired disk dia.? Single/double ? All steel for a double weighs under16 lbs." Fidanza" sells alum/steel flywheels,no Rover, but will sell "replacement"steel inserts, with bolts/nuts. I'm using for a 10.5" disk.Good Luck, roverman.
