I purchased 6 ft of 1 inch diameter alum tube to make some small spacers for the Zizzo speedster elk horns. the tubing was picked up locally for $35. the four spare Zizzo wheels were less than $200, two rear and two front. these are cheap bikes. the reason I had my first and only flat tire in two years on the Zizzo Forte camping bike (any bike) when I visited Minnesota a couple weeks ago was because I was using the small tubes for those larger tires. Too much stretch, I corrected that with the proper size tubes.

quick post condition inspection check flight and a bike ride. a nice meal to celebrate the low-cost condition inspection completion. the only money I spent was for a can of $10 spray paint for the forward engine cylinder fins. I rode from the airport into the neighboring village and then over the next village and took a nap on a picnic table. I tested the newly secured bike elk horns and the 2nd set of clipless pedals. everything worked very well. saved some money buying cheaper fuel and covered a good portion of my meal. like I tell my wife, I am saving money by flying places. :)
