XT660Z Spoke Wraps
 
Hi Guys here are some of those plastic spoke wraps purchased off an auction site, They are a pain to fit but does give the cruddy Tenere spokes a new lease of life before having to replace them with stainless.

Wow, they look great pal, multi colours. What a pig to fit though. think next time i will warm them up first in some hot water it may make them a little softer to snap over the spokes. By the way Tenere spokes suck as do most of the bolts and fixings.

I'm liking this idea as my teneres spokes are getting a bit tired and I'm now going hummmmm what colour or colours do I get??? red tenere..... just red or do I go for red and black or something a bit different??

Do them red and yellow - grab a big handful of drinking straws from McDonald's next time you are in...

My spokes have begun to rust slightly. I'm thinking of getting these as a barrier to stop water as well as look great. Any advice on what I should put on the spokes before putting the spoke coats on?
