Kestonian Retrobike Rider Gold Trader Feedback View Apr 12, 2007 #2 What size? If it's big enough, just post it to my house ..... I used car polish on my RC200 and it comes up lovely after a couple of coats. Less wind resistance, too. I'm sure I'll notice that!

M Macscheen Retro Newbie Apr 12, 2007 #3 Sorry, it's a small!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll have a go with the car polish. Wind resistance isn't a consideration as I have just bought it as a turbo trainer bike. I was using http://macscheenracing.com/claud%20butler.htm but I wanted something a bit blinger as it is going to be stuck in my lounge/dining room!! I don't think my proper bike would be suitable either due to bounce factor on front and faff factor of tubeless on rear and changing to slick every 5 mins - http://macscheenracing.com/scott%20ransom%202006.htm All I need now is a set of pimped wheels that accept disks. Any ideas? Mac
