| Hi Ali, What a poignent post as I was just in my garage today (during a hailstorm  ) and wondering about if I really should get my polished front wheel repaired. At my last MOT my bike actually failed on rear wheel bearings but the test mentioned a warning about the front wheel which he said was slightly buckled - Blow me but, I can't see it while rolling the wheel.I might mount it on a spindle in a vice or something and have a look BUT.... it all reminded me of a guy near me who repaired an Alloy BMW wheel for me YEARS ago. He maintained that his 'repairs' had been tested by X-ray and were as sound as anyone elses BUT when I asked him HOW it was actually done I remember him saying "You REALLY don't want to know!". Hmmmmmm. I think the guy is still open for business as I remember seeing an Ad in MCN for him a little while back (cant find him after searching their website - great value advertising !!!) BUT I remember seeing the Ducayi's he mentions on his website some 10 years ago - but I will phone up and see if he is still doing repairs: http://www.thersbygroup.freeserve.co.uk/index.html Sorry - was I waffling ?????   |
