  Four plus days, five plus posts and I'm still in the nursery. I must be a slow developer.

• Wanted: Velocity A23 - 24" [520] Rim

  in Wanted Adverts • 12 years, 6 months

  

  I found UK suppliers for cheap 520 iso tyres (32mm) Kenda (11 PSI) for £11.95 and Terry (95 PSI) for £15. Those are the widest that will fit the Airnimal Chameleon apparently.

  I also found slightly cheaper rims (£28) from Spacycles.co.uk (they do the Terry tyre metioned above). They are 32 hole. I don't know who the manufactures are, I assume it is an Airnimal branded item.

  I've got the opportunity to rebuild on of these that was in a fire but I'm trying to do it on the cheap and it turns out they have very rear wheel size. Anyone happen to have a 520 iso rim or rear wheel or know where to get an affordable pair of 23-520 iso tyres?

  Anyone interested... instead of paying £28-£35 each for tyres, you can find them for £12 or £15. These are 32mm, not the faster 23mm or 25mm ones usually supplied. They are from Kenda or Terry and UK suppliers.

  Google
  "Kenda 24 X (520-1.25) K191 BLK for 520 folding-bike rims"
  and
  "[B][/B]Terry widest tyre available for the 520 ERTRO Chameleon wheels"
  to find the links.

  Note. The people selling the Terry tyres also sell 520 ISO innertubes for £3.50

• Wanted: Velocity Aerohead rims - or assistance finding some

  I know this is an old thread but as a new user I am not allowed to start a new one of my own until I have posted to three existing ones (as an anti-spam measure that seems self defeating ;)

  Anyway, I am looking for a Velocity Aerohead A23 520 rim or rear wheel for an Airnimal Chameleon (or any similar 23-530 rim).

  Anyone help me out?

  I am also looking for a 23-520 rim or back wheel. I'm trying to rebuild an Airnimal Chameleon om the cheap. I've found rims for £30 but I hope I can get something much cheaper.

  I'm also looking for cheap 23-520 tyres, part worns would be fine ;-)

  I can't bring myself to pay £28 each for tyres (the last bike I bought cost me that!)
