    Hi Luyot

    Unfortunately, Transalp rear wheels are about as common as hen's teeth. Most people end up looking for one on ebay, but there are not a lot of them about. The other option is to get the wheel rebuilt with a new rim. Now, there's places in the UK to get this done, but I don't know (yet) of anyone that can do it on this fair isle. I'm sure there is, but it's a case of tracking them down.

    Sorry, if this post is a bit negative - but I'm afraid that's just how it is.

    Oh, by the way, it's probably not a good idea to leave your email address in your post - you may end up with endless mountains of spam email. Best to remove this, as anyone that can help will post here or PM you.

    It's not a case of whether we can fix it or not - it's more a case of how fixed would you like it?
