It really makes you wonder, what is going on in this world... So now I wait on ebay. Can't find 20x4.0 wheelsets anywhere, in the EU. I can buy rims, so maybe if I get a refund I build my own. Crazy. 26" would work for the beast, but not chubby.
At least you didn't order them from Chubby's bikes like I ordered a set from still no tires or refund or even hear back from

That's a bummer... I always use paypal, it helps with situations like this and ebay.At least you didn't order them from Chubby's bikes like I ordered a set from still no tires or refund or even hear back from
That's what I usually do but it was the only place I found at the time that supposedly had cream 26x2.125 small brick tires.

Well good news is ebay funded the whole amount and I get to keep the wheels...
So I will now go for a set of raw rims and build them. I will use old 20" spokes and hubs, this should work for what I need them for. The hubs are normally wider then normal ones, but I can shave the spokes down a few mm if to long. It also means I can paint the rims what color I want.

Just waiting on parts, to continue with the frame. Mostly the guards, the rear so it fits snug without the struts. last part will be to order a seat.
It will add more weight, but you can put 16" motorcycle tires on those rims.

I have used in the past, very heavy. I have ordered a set with road tread. Hopefully here by next week. Just had a order for a bike for a girl of 10. So maybe I will enter in n0 1 section and do a quicky no thrills or spills. And have it done in a week.
Hows the Butterball been doing?

I am out. I will try and re-enter butterball in the winter build-off.(it is still just a chopped frame) Between finding a new house, cracking ribs, losing my job, and now trying to move, I have no time. I don't want to stress build. I hope to have a new workshop up and runningby end of sept or oct.Hows the Butterball been doing?

That sounds like a rough go of things. We will eagerly await the return of the Bandit!
That is a big handful of events to deal with Miss Funk. Big love and good wishes headed your way from all of us here on RRB and BO16. We look forward to your return to a normal and better life and truly hope to see you having fun here again once you can come up for air.
Hope things will turn around for you.

Thanks guys, I guess that's life. One minute free and relaxed and then bang... Hoping for a new start, and easier life. Get back to creating.
Hey there Miss Funkme. When the world hits you with this kind of mixed up stuff, I know you will hit it back. ( like any ozzie when it suits you). Get those ribs healed and stability back, and we will see something well worth the wait I am sure.
Stay Safe and Happy
