Which adhesive for Cycle Wings?
Hi,
I remember Darren talking about using Loctite "Seriously Strong Stuff" for gluing the cycle wings to the brackets but I can't find
this particular adhesive listed anywhere. Can anyone tell me where to find it? I think he also referred to it as "No More Nails" but the
only one I can find is Unibond No More Nails and I have tried it before for DIY use and found it to be less than great.
Thanks,
Craig.

Personally I think you want to be using Polyurethane Adhesive. I would'nt use no more nails??!?
PU is like $hit to a blanket but still gives - and if your careful and patient 'can' be cut and removed if required
Available from all good local builders merchants etc failing that lolocost etc
Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a
car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes
and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.

I used Wurth bond & seal for mine. No probs so far.
2 lengths of hosepipe gaffer taped to wheel. Steel straps bent round on top of hosepipe. Cleaned the steel up and applied adhesive. Cleaned arch
placed on top and held in place overnight with masking tape. Once set removed wheel and hosepipe then aplied more adhesive to the underside. Worked a
treat.

Yep "Seriously Strong Stuff" works a treat.
Available from B&Q Made by EvoStick.
Alternatively you could try Wikes "Ultimate Adhesive" This S**t will even stick surfaces when the're wet.

I used PU adhesive on mine and the wings have stuck on just fine, even when the bracket itself snapped,

Thanks Guys, I already have some PolyFlex PU adhesive which I used for the panels so I might use that. I think I'll get some of the Evostik
SSStuff though as that was what Darren himself recommended although I'm sure he said it was Loctite. Thanks BKLOCO for pointing me towards
B&Q!
Cheers,
Craig.
