Wanted: 26" Front Wheel

Post by Farawayvisions »

I've banjaxed my front hub from overuse and probably not enough servicing because I'm a bit lazy when it comes to these things. You can hear me coming from a mile away! Crunch, clunk, clank.
I'm not so sure my wheel is worth repairing so if anyone has something to offer I'd love to hear from you.

What axle size? I've definitely got a couple of 20mm wheels, and maybe a qr one too.

Where do I measure from?
Or will it be written somewhere, on the hub perhaps?

(Psst - how is the wheel attached to the forks and what is the diameter of the fixing?)
Zazen - nothing happens next this is it.

Gee, I feel like a total dork now! :oops:

It's attached with a quick release spindle. Do I measure the diameter of the spindle?

If it's a quick release then I know what sort it is. I'll look in the garage tonight and let you know.
