Rear Wheel - Captive Spacers - want any?

Post by Mav617 »

Hi all,

Mac/Frank is sending me some spare rear wheel spacers to send off as templates and the guy at CaptiveSpacers will make a batch up to fit the Storm. I'm getting me and Mac some, anyone else interested? Cost probably around £20 a pair but make getting the rear wheel in much easier if your rear is coming off soon/anytime. If a few of us get them the cost should be lower if I order all at once.

I doubt fitting a rear wheel will ever be a pleasant experience as claimed but more info here: http://www.captivespacers.com/

Nothing worse than having everything lined up on your own and then "clunk...rolll..." a spacer heads off for freedom at the end of the driveway!
