Wait till you try it with spanking new cush rubbers in...... I learned new swear words that day

Find a piece of wood that you can put the wheel on, that is just the right size to place the centre of the wheel in line with the axel - that helps (hint do it before you take the wheel out!)

I used slime in my Varadero - but so far I've been lucky, always have the RAC card with me !!
