Bummer, wrecked two 16" Pentas
Was driving back from Canberra & part of my route was on a rutted dirt road, I encountered a very deep pothole that took up most of my side of the road, couldn't slow down to avoid it in time, buckled & cracked two wheels on one side.

Re: Bummer, wrecked two 16" Pentas
Most insurances I've found won't cover non-factory wheel options anyway. I still have two good ones, I was going to sell them when I rebuilt the Lorinser RSKs I have but I guess I won't be selling them as a set now.Tony From West Oz wrote:Bugga!eric78 wrote:Only third party property unfortunately.Tony From West Oz wrote:Are you insured?
