Hi all, Jus bought a bit of a busted up old cg, (1978 model), so that i can fix it up and hopefully learn abit more on how to fix my other cg when it brakes down, also, when i fix this 1978' CG, hoping to ride it around abit and have it looking all chromed up! Very Happy

Anyway back to the reason i'm posting, the back wheel has a loose/broken spoke, i'd rather replace the wheel but i cannot find a replacement wheel, i've read somewhere that all cg wheels are the same? is that true? and also if i cant find a new wheel, would i be alrite welding the broken spoke back to the wheel? is that legal?

Thanks in advance for any help, Very Happy

new wheel or get new spokes, don't weld em. Highly likely that welding will put the wheel very unevenly balanced.

can't say for sure, but a later 90's wheel should fit, someone will be down to answer that

cheers for reply,

I've got a 1996 model CG that I ride for everyday use, I might just see if the back wheel fits onto the 1978' CG, I dont think i'll be able to get a new spoke because the actual spoke hole has gone from the wheel, I'll let you know how i get on anyway,

cheers for the advice dude.
