Should be an easy one.
Eldest lads shot up over the last year. Not only are we having to budget for a 12 year old who’s now eating more than me, we have to replace all his clothes and I realised there’s going to be no point getting his bike out.
I put it to ‘max’ on the seat and bars last year. I’ll pass it down to his brother.
So I’ve been given an old bike to do up. Definite ‘BSO’ but it’ll do him, for now. There’s a fair bit of tinkering to do. Not least that the LH crank wasn’t fully tightened and has got mangled by the square taper drive... having the previous owners 20st put through it (she is a short, BIG lass!!) won’t have helped.
Anyway, one of the things I noticed, no quick release hubs just nuts. One on the fronts missing. I’m at work and I can ask maintenance to get hold of one. Thing is... what’s the most likely standard size?
Thanks in advance.
