Hi all,

Worrying to notice that one of my S1 central wheelnut grubscrews seems to have worked its way loose and gone awol.

Main nut perfectly firm but I am anxious to replace asap.

Any suggestions where these can be got? / measurement/ specification?

Ian

I'd email SimonH on here or Simon @ SiFab.co.uk

He is very knowledgeable and skillful with all things Aero.

You should be able to find the thread size by trial and error with a selection of metric bolts then there's loads on eBay.

Sorry, don't have a spare, but as you know a few of us on TM have turned 3 wheeler with the grub screw not fully home.

Ian,
Very well done on the grub screw data, I have added it to the knowledge. I was surprised it had managed to come out, I am looking out for a product that will give them more friction.
