My bitch is my own stupidity. When my Sons bike was bought, I never noticed that the Excell front wheel and hub set, was a 20". When I went to change out tires, the only one available was a closeout item, ordered it, waited 2 weeks for them just to say, "Sorry, there wasn't any left." Fine, just buy a 21" hoop, and spokes. Wrong, 32 spokes on the 20", 36 on the 21". So, back to FleaBay where a reconditioned Warp 9 came up. Two hundred and fifty clams later, the wheel is here, I try to fit it just to make sure, and what do you know, the sumbitchin wheel spacers don't fit. So, on to Motosport, where I ordered the front tire, a new tube & a rim strap(and a rear tire for mine ), and the needed Warp 9 wheel spacers. The only glitch I see now, is MS won't be shipping the spacers, for 7 to 10 days. At least I'll have a new rear for Geeks.

[QUOTE="timoyz, post: 72494, member: 10"] My bitch is my own stupidity. When my Sons bike was bought, I never noticed that the Excell front wheel and hub set, was a 20". When I went to change out tires, the only one available was a closeout item, ordered it, waited 2 weeks for them just to say, "Sorry, there wasn't any left." Fine, just buy a 21" hoop, and spokes. Wrong, 32 spokes on the 20", 36 on the 21". So, back to FleaBay where a reconditioned Warp 9 came up.:banana: Two hundred and fifty clams later, the wheel is here, I try to fit it just to make sure, and what do you know, the sumbitchin wheel spacers don't fit.:rant: So, on to Motosport, where I ordered the front tire, a new tube & a rim strap(and a rear tire for mine :busted:), and the needed Warp 9 wheel spacers. The only glitch I see now, is MS won't be shipping the spacers, for 7 to 10 days.:rolleyes: At least I'll have a new rear for Geeks.:ride: [/QUOTE]
