Neighbours kid had his front wheel nicked off his bike, and I’d like to sort a replacement.

Anybody got a 26 inch front wheel (ideally with tyre) going cheap in Bristol? Need to be rim brake/qr?

Got a chunky wide rimmed wheel with unbranded 6 bolt QR hub although rim has braking surface. It is about 33mm external so you might need to check it would fit between the brakes. Free with a choice of Schwalbe city jet, or some 1.9" ish tyres with a solid central tread and some side knobs.

A used and slightly grubby, but true and smoothish, Weinmann ZAC2000 on a Quando hub, with rim tape and skewer but no tyre?

Free in BS5

You’re both legends. I think the 33mm width might be an issue given the v brake boss widths.

@si_mon628 if I could take you up on the wheel, that would be amazing as I’m just across in St Paul’s. @rotten_dog if you wouldn’t mind would I also be able to grab a tyre off you?

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
