My Fenix Flyer was built to be 120 cms and, because it has an extending back axle, it was quite easy to have two extra holes drilled so it can now be 120, 125 or 138 (for outdoor cones). Yes, it's only the rear axle that needs to be changed - so don't give up! You might be allowed to use hoops to fit on the rear wheels if it's too difficult to extend your axle - worth asking? | ||

Is'nt it just the back axle that has to be 125? If this is the case it's not going to be very costly to modify a 120 width vehicle. | ||

vEHICLE WIDTHS I have an older vehicle that is only 120cm, it only needs a couple of wider axles and I'm legal to compete indoors & out, why not check it out. Much better than giving up before you even start. | ||

I am really cheesed off to read that vehicle widths are to be changed to 125 cm. My vehicle is a 4 wheeler with a set width of 120 cm and I certainly can't afford to replace it! It looks like I'll have to give up this sport before I've really had a chance to get started. | ||

Sorry, got it wrong - 2005-2006 season the revised vehicle widths will come into force. | ||

Not that it worries me as I'm 125cm, but please clarify a couple of points. You say from next season, but you say 2004/2005 which is this season. Also, will there be any form of checking? Chris | ||

PLEASE NOTE: AS FROM NEXT SEASON 2004-2005 ALL VEHICLES MUST BE 125cm IN WIDTH. ANY VEHICLE LESS THAN THIS REQUIRED WIDTH MAY COMPETE Hors de Concours ONLY |
