Hi there a friend of mine has almost finished building his kit and was wondering if its ok to sikaflex the front cycle wings on or whether SVA requires a bolted/screwes fitting....i am sure sticking is ok but can someone confirm for me....cheers and hope everyones ok....

My cycle wings are glued on as you say and I had my SVA on Tuesday.

No comment passed by the inspector.

sticking them on is acceptable.
That is how all Dax Rushes are done.

I used perforated steel about 70mm deep by the width of the cycle wing with bolts brazed on then Sikaflexed the whole lot to the wing, Passed today.
