I had that before. The fella who pulled out in front of me was like: "no cops no cops, please please please don't call the police - how much for a new front wheel - I'll give you cash right now?"
I had no idea, cos I was new to cycling so thought £50 sounded about right.
He then went to the passenger foot well of this car and brings out a carrier bag stuffed full of £50 notes and gives me one! Still kicking myself to this day for lowballing myself. That 50 only just got about got a new wheel let alone tyre and all that gubbins.
