Tailwheel choice
Posted: Fri Aug 26, 2005 10:37 am
'Time to pick your brains again guys.
I recently had a valve fail in my tailwheel and trying to get a new
tube was a nightmare as they are not made any more and the
nearest available was not that good.
It'll do for the moment but I am thinking of fitting a solid tailwheel
to the Rearwin. I have looked around at various sites on the
internet but have come up with nothing yet.
I just thught I would post here as one of you may have been
down this route before. The tailwheel on the Cloudster is 7.5
inches diameter with a .5in bolt holding it in. Tread width is about
2.25 inches and the overall width of the wheel about 3in.
Can anyone advise on a replacement?
