It's the little things...

Picked a set of these valve caps up for myself and a set for my Dad as an additional Father's Day present off eBay this morning:

Not bad for a fiver, in fact I've just emailed the seller to see if he could make some Bocanegra "B" logo ones up for me.

i like them. May have to invest in some. Did he like them?

 

[mardon]

Yeah very nice!

i used to have nice alloy valve caps but the local kids kept nicking them to put on their bikes, so i gave up and got a load of plastic ones off ebay for nothing - lighter anyway.

I'll be flogging a couple of the locking types the Seat logos for a fiver in the next week or so..

I only ordered them this morning so I haven't received them yet, hopefully tomorrow or Wednesday.

Here is the the link for anyone that's interested: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Valve-Dust-Ty...tyres_trims_Valve_Caps_ET&hash=item4a9f4ec6d1

At some point I'll get some pics of the new Boc up, I'm getting the roof wrapped in black vinyl on 07/07 so I need to get some before and afters, not forgetting some nice macro shots of the new valve caps of course!

Try putting some vaseline in them first before screwing them on. They usually end up corroding on and then buggering the tyre valve.
