where can i get them from????

I need some cycle wings for my MK.

The ones i currently have on are only 205 wide and the way the bracket is made, they dont fit on a tyre size of 195.

Where can i get some wider ones from, do mk do any? and how much.....

Sounds like you have the earlier MK ones which are quite narrow. They sell a newer design which has small bulges moulded on the inside edge to allow easier wing stay fitting - not sure if they're actually any wider though.

I got round the problem when fitting my older style ones by cutting small notches out of the inside edge so the wing stay could be bent further out and then flat in across the tyre.

Did similar solution to nick with my old style winds, but cut a slot just big enough to pass the bent wing stays... Did'nt want a "notch" as I was worried the wing would lose some strength and flap about more.
