Being a bit of an engineering type I made a tool up to pull the new headset in. The wheels are only tempoary to allow the fitting of mudguards, which I do think add to the looks of the bike. Yes it was a bit of an extravagent expense but they are really practical for a daily commuting bike. After asking around, track nuts for the rear wheels seem to be the order of the day with a fixed wheel to ensure the wheel stays firmly put. Mike at Cyclerama had a pair of 3/8 inch cycle thread nuts for £1! I also have some 9mm metric ones for free if you want them e-mail me at ian883@hotmail.com.
