RiF Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 Want a set of flared wings for a K series chassis. Must be in the South East of England. Could collect around Christmas. I want them to cut up No No No don't get the wrong idea I love the clamshells and want to play around with a design for wide track / SV models. Part of the reason I want them is to limit any increase in size and thus keep lift / drag to a minimum but keep the great looks Colour does not matter but would prefer good condition. Never know might be selling them to Caterham for racing in Germany now cycle wings are band for the 24 hour race 😬 😬 First French member of the great clamshell club UK Richard in France Awaiting chassis to start building my Duratec 7 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 I have a pair of flared wings in black, but they are from a x-flow ( 1990 spec ) if this is any use ? Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.R. Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 Richard I have a pair of unused (but probbaly faded) red cycle wings. One used white one. And a pair of mint unused pre-lit Westfield ones. You can have any or all of them F.O.C. I am in the South of England and will probably be visiting Northern France betwen now & Christmas,- Somme area. Could bring them if anywhere near you.

jf_renard Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 Hi Richard. I've got 2 new clamshell wings (green). They are -like me- in the north of France, in Roubaix. If you really want to pick them in the south-east of England, maybe we can meet there?

RiF Posted December 9, 2002 Author Share Posted December 9, 2002 Thanks to you all for replying. As I am only going to cut them up, condition is not so important. I could be interested in more than one set if price is right to experiment 😳. Anthony - I think they are the same, where are you and how much? JR - Thanks for the offer but only after flared wings, have a good time in France. Jeff - Could be interested. I go to Belgium often (nothing planned at the moment) and could perhaps pick them up. I will be near Hastings just before Christmas if you were going over but no point in the journey especially. Going via Portsmouth this trip ☹️ How much do you want for them?

CHRIS CLARK Posted December 19, 2002 Share Posted December 19, 2002 well, the damn thing said it had 'timed out' but it still went OK. Those wings are just waiting to go to a good home where they'll be appreciated!!! Most Cycle wing owners should be in a home too but that's another story 🙆🏻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiF Posted December 19, 2002 Author Share Posted December 19, 2002 Good on you Chris Give them a good home and make them happy for Christmas 😬 Don't understand how someone could prefer silly bi-cycle wings do you 😬 😬 😬 Richard in France Awaiting chassis to start building my Duratec 7 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
