front wheel gone

[Quicksilver]

My front wheel bearings disintegrated and wormed out my front wheel. I bought new bearings but when I removed the old bearings the wheel and sleeve were worn and wormed out. So I guess I will have to replace the wheel. Anyone have any ideas besides the dealer. I do not know what they cost but I do know there are cheper places than the dealer.

 

Thanks Quicksilver

Do not know what you are riding, but I saw one in the classifieds earlier. Update - I see now in your picture that you riding a Venture. I bet a lot of models use the same wheel ? But not sure the yr of yours.

you could just have the bearing recess bored and sleeved at a local machine shop

Or is it a separate bore from the wheel? Able to be replaced? Or a sleeve and a bit smaller bolt used to fix the originals?

 

 

Questions, questions, questions.........

i picked up an extra set of wheels off e-bay several yrs ago, that way i can mount my new tires and just swap them out, o'course i have 3 bikes that use the same wheel and tire sizes. jsut look at pinwall and ofdfer them less than what they are asking, they may take it, they had several sets last time i looked.

Thank you I have one coming from PinWall found one from a 1999 with only 19000 miles on it.

I have new bearings to put in when it arrives, thanks to all who helped me. You can't beat the people on this site.
