Having a new one sent out sounds good though!

The new one has arrived. It is just as stiff!!!

I try to turn it. It moves but doesnt carry on spinning. Will take one apart and try oiling it.

I would send them both back and get a Silent Runner instead If the stands get slightly bent out of shape the wheel won't sit right on them for spinning. And they are really hard to bend back as they are so solid - but if they've been stored badly or got bashed or something, the stands could be out of line or something.

I think you are right Serendipity. I mean how ruddy daft to have two brand new unusable wheels.

I am rather taken by the description of the silent runner.

Hmmm.

You could do what I did and get the Barney cage and the 12" silent runner It fits really well to the bars and you have loads of substrate underneath! Only problem is it's not a cheap wheel - works out at about £30 with the cage mounting plates as well. £25 on its own - and there's postage on top.

It kind of hurt getting a new wheel to go in the cage when I had a perfectly good wobust wheel, but it fits so much better.
