Title: Reliant Robin or Rialto axle Post by: RobF on August 18, 2006, 12:13:42 PM Hi Guys
I have finally given in and am no longer just looking at the fantastic Reliant based trikes you have been building and am going to do my own. I have my Reliant engine and gearbox and a bike front end but I need an axle (and propshaft) before I can even get started. Does anyone here have one for sale ? Thanks Title: Re: Reliant Robin or Rialto axle Post by: Manky Monkey on August 18, 2006, 05:22:38 PM Hi Rob. Ha! Another convert! Welcome to our world ;D
I think I've got a spare propshaft, but the only spare axle we've got is already ear-marked for someone else's project. They've been going for about 40 quid but I saw two for sale in this month's BSH for 120 quid each! It's still possible to pick up whole cars for 20 or 30 quid, abandoned in people's gardens, just a matter of being in the right place at the right time. Look in shop window ads, Exchange & Mart etc for cheap bargains, rather than bike mags or Ebay where people are starting to realise they're sought after for trikes & pricing them accordingly. Or you could try the owners club site of course. http://www.reliantownersclub.co.uk/enter.html Join the forum & check the For Sale section.

I thought it worth asking on the obvious places first. ebay can be an expensive place these days ::) |
