Posted on
  • just trying to help a work colleague who came back to their bike to find something heavy had ridden over it. anyone got anything would be much appreciated.

    cheers,

    jonny

  • disc brake or not?
    I gots a disc brake one, although it could equally be used without.

  • no disc brake henners but if yours is good and cheapish then could work

  • Jonny there's been one locked in the bike rack here at work for over a year, where the rest of the bike was stolen in a bit of an epiclockingfail situation.

    Might be time for me to liberate. I'll go down and have a smoke and check out the details...

  • tom that is potentially good news. i particularly like the smoking bit.

  • Yep, it's there alright. Can't see any branding on the hub or rim but the wheel is in good condition and is rocking a brand new Maxxis 700c x 35 tyre.

    Only problem is that its locked with an Abus D lock and all my tools have already been sent to the 'Dam. If you've got a way for us to get the lock off then we've got your friend sorted.

  • Have one at home, any good?
    Would swap it for a skewer so I can replace the wheel.

    yeah that might be a bit tricksy. i don't have tools for that kind of malarkey. i hope you had a good smoke though

    don't quite understand your post dude but if you have a wheel then might be interested

  • Ah, sorry.
    I have a wheel but it's in SE23 which might not help you now.

    I was after the possibility of trading it for a front wheel skewer as I need one for the wheel I'm replacing it with.

    Make a the sense yes?

  • wicksie, that will work dude - the wheel of my colleague is fucked at the rim but the skewer is fine.

    i live SE15 so can sort out over weekend? will pm dude

  • i've got new front wheel of a charge plug for sale if thats any good? (takes fairly wide tryes)

  • okay, little misunderstanding with wicksie means i am still in the search. anyone?

    jj1, that might work but understand that i am trying to get something cheap as chips for what is a fairly old hybrid. reckon on a new wheel from a plug will break the 25 notes budget - but please correct me if i am wrong ;)

  • I have a aero spoke wheel that will work- £20 will be fine- in se4 by crofton park if you want a butchers?

  • I'll swap you a bag of cheese and onion crisps for the aerospoke

  • Similar situation to OP. Mate at work had her front wheel driven over this morning so needs a 700 front wheel suitable for hybrid ASAP.

    Anyone got something true and working floating about that could get her back on the road without shelling out for a new one?

    Based in London Bridge/Vauxhall

    Cheers

  • barely used front wheel off a ridgeback hybrid with Conti 38c tyre.

    I'll trade for a half-decent 28c tyre

  • @braker - nothing to trade as her other wheel is mangled. How much you looking for for that wheel? Pic?
