Need some wheels

[welshwhit]

Hi folks,

Been suffering with a bad back of late and need some wheels for my Discovery 158 open canoe.

Will the £30-40 ish ones off ebay do the job or will they fail at the most inconvienient moment!

Would would you all recomend?

Thanks

Drew

If you mean a Landrover Discovery, the cheapy ones are probably generic steel wheels in which case they will work fine.
What is wrong with the Alloys it arrived with?

Lol! Theres me always telling the class to be specific!

It is indeed a nice red Old town Discovery 158 Open canoe!

Alothough I reckon the discovery of the motor veichle kind may be an advantage on portages!

Fitting wheels to a canoe makes them difficult to paddle.

Larger wheels fare better on uneven terrain... http://www.nswatersports.co.uk/acce...ilver-eckla-explo400&utm_campaign=froogle#524
