Whatever your local garage charge, probably 5 ponds per wheel.

So twenty ponds as I will be taking the bike not the wheels.


I would take the wheels as they are the bits that need the rubber on.

Why not spend your extortion money on getting your front sprocket fixed.

Why would I pay for something to be fixed that isn't causing any problems? I'm going to run it into ground then buy another.


So you will be needing a new bike next week then.

There's no problem with the front sprocket..


It's welded to the output shaft. If you don't see that as a problem you are even more of a window licker than I thought you were.

Unless you do something rash, like weld the sprocket on to the output shaft.

For winter use, have you thought about buying some rubber blocks and then screwing them directly into your current tyres? Instant knobbly snow tyres, what could go wrong?

Wouldn't they interfere with the snow chains though?

Weld the chains on to the screw heads. Do I have to spell out the obvious? Rolling Eyes

I've heard of a guy who welds sprockets to output shafts. Think he'd do it?

Thinking of buying a new pair of tyres with the money I make off my PS4's on Friday. Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy



So the PS4s trading for less than £500 on eBay won't have impressed you then?

Maybe Mr. MIlf has been left stuck with a couple of consoles he can't sell and has still got his old tyres on. That'd be a shame...
