Gudzy Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 I bought one from eBay recently for £19.25, it's a silverline branded part and looks like the one from screwfix, eBay item number: 170768846711. I used it when changing my wheels over and it did the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spursmaddave Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 Cheers Gman & Ebized, no doubt those are far superior to my choice but i dont need anything near that professional... Looks like the screwfix one like gudzy has will do the job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
