8 or 9 speed ,I could have a look at it for you if you want.If it is buckled bad etc etc etc it might be worth getting a new one.Is it vee brake or disc.I have a rear wheel as long as its the right type that you could use while yours is being fixed.

I can prob get 3 bikes in ,maybe 4 I do have a rack not used it on this car yet but we could try it .So I could pick people up on the way and we just split the fuel and parking and the driver gets a free coffee at the cafe ha ha .We would have to take the wheels off 2 bikes to go in the boot and 2 on the rack.It is a citroen xara picasso what you say.

Hi
I ride a 2010 stumpy fsr- about your bearings- if they are sealed then you probably have a good wheel as they don't normally put them on crap rims- I would get them sorted asap before you wear the hub out. Cone and cup are ok to service but you need cone wrenches and patience lol

Safe to say todays riding conditions were the worst I have ever rode.

Very good ride only did 15miles but from the moor to ponderosa cafe and back.

Don't under estimate older riders aswell, in parts steve was quicker than me lol
