After hitting a 5" diameter log in the road a 60+ (don't ask!) I now have a badly damaged front wheel(rim) and a dented ego!
I'll check to see if I can get it repaired (gulp) but wondered if anyone has one for sale here.

17" 3-spoke alley with slots, the type that was offered as an option, but came as standard with the red stripe specials. Bike's a 2000 X1.

PS: the back wheel probably needs a li'l fettling too!

Check for stripped/crossed threads for disc/pulley fixings and loose bearing housings. Can be fixed ,but have a look anyway.

Looks like it's gonna be Hagon repair.
£75 or £95 if it requires a piece fitted. Still, cheaper than a new wheel.
I'll send it off tomorrow.

He wants a front wheel and that says its a rear wheel. But then again it also says its 18" inch as well so who knows.

What about the 18" part? As the actress said to the bishop.

A call to the breaker would confirm the size... Can't see why it would be 18"
