    Tex Magna Rubber wheel indicator replacement

    Hey guys,

    Has anyone come up with a better option than purchasing the $60+ Tex manga rubber wheel from the UK? Im not in a hurry but was wondering if anyone has found a good workaround?

    Thanks,

    Jeff

    I repaired one by 3D printing up a replacement collar to fit over the wheel centre, and gluing on some round rubber rubber rod(?) around the circumference. Works OK.

    Don't know what the freight cost would be, but....Pangolin 4x4

    If it's only the tyre that's worn, a sewing machine bobbin winder tyre or o ring might suffice.
