Disc Wheels

Does anyone know where I could find Disc Wheels for either a Peter Lynn or Flexi buggy. PL doesnt seem to make them anymore.

Thx in advance.

Libre make some dics wheels, you may have to put some spaces inside to suit the PL axles though

Tried out for the first time attaching discs to my buggy the other day...


could do with some narrow forks, but for the amount of time I will use them it seems hardly worth while...

Yeh i emailed him but they're too expensive (I'm too poor). I want to higher my seat because i ride on rough ground so my bum scrapes. I was thinking of getting 2 larger wheels but might just modify my seat a bit instead.

since you dont use your disc that much, you're welcome to send them to me. :yes:
I still need a set to use for NABX 08'

PS. like the new wide tires addition (in other post), makes the buggy look like a dragster.
