Evening all,

I've had a new shed/workshop and would love an MTB inspired clock up on the wall.

I'm sure someone on here was making and selling ones made out of wheels or disk brakes.

Does anyone have any biking inspired ideas or clocks that they would recommend?

I made one out of a 24 hole BMX rim that I got really cheaply, some spokes and a hub that a hacksawed apart. Mechanism from eBay, job done.

We had one made from a BMX front wheel but sent it to the hospice shop in the end as we kept having to blow the tyre back up. Even changed the tube but it didn't make any difference.

Worn disc of here for buttons and a mech and hands off ebay.You just need to make a plastic disc with a hole in the middle for the clock nut and six holes that will take the disc bolts.Total cost was about a tenner.
Get to it Mosey. ๐Ÿ˜‰
