nigel dabster Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 These look like the Spanish black ones, some of them are too long and need to be shortened.

nigel dabster Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 I bought my first lot from a tyre/air tools wholesaler to the tyre fitting trade, a couple of years back but when they went bust I took a tuperware beaker, yes my mum used to do parties in the 60's, and asked the local tyre fitters shop if I could buy a beaker full. He let me have it for tea money. Think vesty sells big tubs of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PLEASE DELETE YOUR POST/TOPIC. DO NOT TRY TO CIRCUMVENT THE FILTERS IN PLACE ON THIS WEBSITE.co.uk/products-page-6.html Thanks Dabster, I've bought the trolley, but I'm buggered if I can get the tyre on with it. Have you got any tips? On a less serious note, those prices look pretty good. Anybody got those T-Bar Allen keys? Are they 'monkey-sh*t or OK? Seem cheap. The folding allen keys are cheapest I've seen them, and the plastic is handy to shove in the pocket for those of us that hit the floor regularly. I spent a fortune having my beader apparently hand delivered by topfun, almost doubled the price. Definitely worth it at this price. The real ****er is I've never managed to seal my spokes since about 4 weeks after I got the beader. I need to get that tube out some time.

perce Posted February 4, 2005 Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 If you want a tool to carry round at a Trial try this:- http://www.machinemart.co.uk/product.asp?p...60&r=2079&g=111 buy additional bits:- http://www.machinemart.co.uk/product.asp?p...78&r=2079&g=111 Then you should have all the hex heads / screwdrivers you need to carry. For home I have a set of Britool T-hex, they cost less than a night out on the sauce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dixie Posted February 4, 2005 Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 r2w.I use a bottle of cheap hand cream to seat my tyres.It is inert and goes off tacky but not hard,I use it on my road bikes as well,with no ill effects.and it is easy to apply fron the spout.

nigel dabster Posted February 4, 2005 Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 Tyre soap is better the introduction of a lanolin based hand cream can't help once the tyre is on. The inner tubes work as well but at Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
