cycle wing stays / Nosecone

Saturday 16th July
Spent most of the day cutting and fitting the nosecone, it was the usual trim, try several times until I was happy with the fit. There are 3 liugs on the chassis to fix it to, two on the top rails either side and one in the centre at the bottom. The bottom one I drilled a hole and turned into a slot so a bolt can be fitted, as under there you can’t see it, however I need to find a way to fix to the top rails without the fixing being visible on the outside. Also fitted the cycle wing stays, these are a right pain in the **** I spaced them out from the hub with spacers to clear the tyres but when you put the cycle wings on they don’t line up with the wheel very well, it almost looks like the wing are warped, this is going to take some “adjusting” to get right.
