    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE

    I've been looking into the price of getting a replacement rim spoked onto an existing front wheel hub, that comes in at £160 per wheel for standard spokes, plus postage too and from. That's with Hagon.

    I suppose if the wheels were good it's not to bad.

    I listed an original pair of Stadium Goggles Circa 1978 on ebay & some nutter in Japan paid £65 for em !! The day i went into Dad's loft to fix his ball valve some 25 yrs after leaving home was the most productive bit of DIY ever !! Various Commando parts long forgotten also raised the bank account considerably !!

    Let it be a lesson - what have you got from long forgotten bikes lurkin in the loft,shed or garage......

    The Japanese particularly love any old "Original English Manufactured" bike wear - you too could be sittin on a Goldmine.....
