Hi all,

Housemate has aquired an old Peugeot road bike to use as a commuter.

She has zero budget and it needs a couple of spokes for front wheel, both wheels trued and 'French' nuts for the front axle.

Any hints on where best to track these bits down and cheapest way to do it. (I can help on everything else but am hopeless on truing wheels.

Cool bananas
Bill

Try the Cycle. Recycle place (fmr the nunnery) located in redfern.
Good idea to get ur friend to bring the bike in. Notice they are nicer if they see u are actually resurrecting an old bike. They don't charge for anything.
