Possibly silly question:
So i had a pretty bad crash a few weeks ago going from a pothole into the back of a parked car. I buckled both of my wheels beyond repair and got a bit of a baby's-fist size hole in my thigh. Mr insurance company has offered me an Apollo Vortice or equivalent price (£180) as a replacement complete bike.
Basically, i'm wondering if insurance companies are open to using eBay, or gumtree to buy a replacement bike, or if they're open to frames and wheels, etc.
Has anyone had any similar experience doing something like this?
Just wondering before I look like a fool and send a few ebay links and ask them to bid on them.Thanks.

Looking for a couple of 27 x 1 1/4 rims to restore my old steel racer (geared) after a pretty bad crash. The current ones are buckled beyond truing or repair (one is split a bit at the seam).
So if anybody has any spare rims in half-decent condition, or a wheelset for geared, let me know.
Thanks in advance.

This is a good little video site, with lots of different shaping styles/techniques.
Makes for good fun.
Does anyone use a mixer with dough hook?
I'm looking into getting one, but wondering if there's a difference in texture/crumb/eslasticity?
