 Poster: A snowHead
|
Coming back from Tignes last Sunday, going through Grenoble airport, we noticed that one of the wheels on a Sportube was shedding plastic. I see that in the US you can order a replacement wheels, axle & locking nut set.
Does any Snowhead know where I can order the same in the UK ? keen to get this sorted before our next trip to VT in March.
Thanks in advance for any info you guys can supply me with.
cheers

If stuck, drop me a PM. I've got a damaged Sportube 2 which might have a salvagable wheel. Airport handlers dropped it from a great height on its first trip. Then to add insult to injury, they left it sitting beside a heat source when they were inspecting it for my claim and welded the two secdtions together 
Still, got a replacement out of them

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

If it’s for using on the ski brakes.... just go to a stationers and buy a pack of large elastic bands

Just use large cable ties, strong string, velcro straps etc to tie up the ski brakes.
You may be able to reuse the same cable ties if you don't pull the brakes up too high. Take spare ties for the return journey if you have to cut them off.
