Moderator Cynic Posted May 7, 2011 Moderator Posted May 7, 2011 Anybody got any thoughts on wheel replacements for the TDR, bike is a keeper but as a maried slave to the system with 2.4 sprogs, morgage etc etc etc lashing out hundreds of pennies for some fancy stuff is a a stretch. Anybody got some realistic soloutions, am i right in thinking that one busted spoke may well be the beginning of the end for the rest of em? Cheers all. Edit:- been looking at central wheel. Rebuild my wheels with stainless spokes for about 80 quid a wheel? Opinions...?
Moderator DirtyDT Posted May 7, 2011 Moderator Posted May 7, 2011 TZR wheels will be stacks of cash (if they fit) and a new rim and spoke set at around £200 a wheel is not a pleasant thought. Can you get some single spokes and repair the ones that need doing for now?
Moderator mervin Posted May 7, 2011 Moderator Posted May 7, 2011 Take a look at what i have posted on the TDR forum Cynic
burton500 Posted May 8, 2011 Posted May 8, 2011 Anybody got some realistic soloutions, am i right in thinking that one busted spoke may well be the beginning of the end for the rest of em? I had a spoke go on one occasion, so I just replaced that one spoke. Was never a problem thereafter. But as you say, the longer you leave it, the more chance that the others will start going. Lee
