Lewis,

You can get them from RHE have a look here. It lists spare parts their prices quite near the bottom, under the paragraph of text written in uppercase letters.

I need a wide pair of these, and if I can get them I got a normal pair then spare.

Cheers guy's,

Lew

 

Mike, do you know if there is a robin hood order form or do you have to collect it from Mansfield?

Lew,

 

Just phone RH and they will deliver but they are a bit pricey....

just a quickie while you are on about Cycle Wings, does anybody know if there are any regs on the SVA as to the angle the wings should be mounted at, ie how much tyre is exposed at the front. just a thought!

Lew,

 

I was looking at getting some cycle wings for my Hood when I was at the Donington Park Show. I was all set to buy a pair from RH or MK when I saw the Stuart Taylor Motorsport guys selling them for £12 each (ie £24/pair)! I bought a pair and they are fine, 200mm wide, easily enough for 185 width tyres and probably ok for 195s as well. The only downside might be getting the right colour if you are not intending to paint them. I am painting mine so the fact that they were sky blue wasn't a problem. Might be worth a call though.

Fitting cycle wings to an Exmo is not a straitforward job due to the buttress thingy. Anyone able to advise on a details/problems seeing as Lew is newish to the board, newish to the car?

I checked this out with the SVA station prior to my SVA. The answer I got (at Derby) was that the wing must cover the plan view of the wheel rim (excluding tyre) when viewed from directly above. This applies to all 4 "sides" of the wheel - front back inner and outer edges.

Thanks Ant,

I would hate to fix the wings on then have to move them again for the sva,

Cheers

Are the Exmo swept wings the same as the 2 b and if so are you looking to get rid of them?
