Hello,

Newbie here and probably a simple question but what shops exist in the UK for parts... I have just bought a recumbent from EBay and want to get a mudguard set... 20" front and 26" rear but finding any shops online is next to impossible.  Any recommendations please?

Thanking you in advance

The brand would would be helpful, but any set of 20" front and 26" rear should fit. All obtainable from the same recumbent list on eBay. Laidback cycles in Edinburgh has online sales. Or Dtek who posts on this forum will do stuff for you I think. Also bike shops on the mainland (Europe) may do stuff if you can get them to post it to you which thanks to Brexit can be very difficult.

All the best.
Roy

Depends if you want them to match or not.

Getting hold of a mudguard for the 26" is simple; probably any decent bike shop will have SKS in that size.  20" may be trickier; I would try HP Velotechnik and thus by extension, Kinetics in Glasgow. Ben is very up to speed on the fallout from Brexit.  You might also try a Dahon or Tern dealer such as AVC, who appears to have M:Part mudguards in stock and may have others.  Their Pashley Moulton TSR set is SKS but out of stock currently.
