Title: F1 Rear Wheel 'disaster'
Post by: r1_pete on January 18, 2013, 09:44:12 AM

I've not done much work with the CB in the last year or so, been busy re building the E Type's Bonnet.....

Decided I'd lace up the back wheel during the last few cold nights when disaster struck, one of the spoke holes in the rim pulled apart as I was tightening the spoke, I guess there must have been a hairline crack as I hadn't got anywhere near full tension on, anyway the hub is scrap now with 3 adjascent spoke holes ripped open.

Does anyone have an F1 rear hub for sale? know of one for sale, or of any other spoke hub from Honda or other manufacturer which can be made to fit?

Cheers.

Pete.

Thanks Guys,

All I know of the bike is its an F1, with spoked wheels, it came in boxes of bits, and I'm not even sure its all one bike as there was a spoked rear and comstar front wheel, but the spoked rear did fit the swing arm as I was using it to build the wheel.

I'll drop that French lead an email, see if we can do anything.

Cheers.

Pete
