Out yesterday and noticed a creak somewhere on the bike. Took a corner and the bike felt a bit bendy so went today to change the main pivot bearings which seem to go every 6-9 months - however, they were fine.
Bit more of a look round and found the culprit - one of the pivot arm bolts has snapped. Pulled it out and am now in the same boat as this bloke - [url= http://www.bikeradar.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=16426817 ]LINK[/url]
No worries methinks. I'll order one and pop it in. Except Cube dont sell them individually, you have to buy the kit - six small bearings and a few bolts and spacers.
£79.99 is the cheapest I've found - to replace one broken bolt.
Bugger.
What kind of bolt is it? Can you not try and see if a hardware supplier stocks the same bolt.
Tap, let me have a look around for you tomorrow.....
+1 for a hardware store or find an engineering work shop. Even a toolmaker may help.
wiggles - like the one in the link
banks - few threads suggest they are made for Cube but was going to trawl round some hardware stores
