I have a problem. Today i was riding my Beta techno and i went over a log and heard a bang and my mudguard dropped and hit my wheel. At first i thought it was one simple bolt that had snapped as it had done this before but on closer inspection part of the weird linkage which is connected to the swing arm had been wearing away on one side and my landing after the log had sheared this bit of the swingarm off. So there was 2 small holes where a weird looking bolt of some kind goes and this is as part of the centre of the front of the swing arm. Unfortunately the swing arm is all one bit and welded together so it is looking like a new swing arm. Has anyone had this problem or know how much it would cost? I shall try and ring Lampkins tomorrow. Thanks, James

try a scrappy as they sometimes may have a near full bike for you to buy bits off

Any idea who to contact that will have them then? Thanks

nope because on one side it had not worn so i could not tell but it had been wearing unevenly and now snapped..I shall check again but im pretty sure it is the bit that is fixed to the centre of the swing arm..it is Techno 99 by the way. Thanks

Oh God James,

Looks like you've had a pretty bad week what with you breaking down on Wednesday night then snapping yer bike.

Tell yer dad it wasn't your fault and he'll pay for the bits perhaps.
