Front wheel wanted.......

#1 Post by greybika » Sat Jan 28, 2012 2:40 pm

Hi,
Due to an unexpected and unavoidable meeting with a large rock that some *** had left in the road I could really do with replacing my front wheel.
The existing one is grey (I have an 04 red and grey model Falco) so if anyone has a spare lying around that they would like to exchange for folding money please get in touch.
Thanks.

early mille - pre radial, is also a straight fit iirc


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Indeed .... and pre 2005 Tuono

Thankfully no....but it gave me one helluva jar up my arms and into my shoulders.

I have a very good pair of blue Brembo 'OZ' a likes boxed and ready to post off if you or anyone else is interested. They are off a pre radial braked Tuono so are a direct replacement.
PM me if it floats your boat.
