Can you repair cracked skyways?

repaired skyways would be fine for a show bike
Superkav:
Yep, I'd agree, fine for a show bike.

You CAN repair CRACKED skyways!!!
Take them along to a nice injection mould shop with an understanding gaffer and get them to ULTRA SONIC WELD the crack.
It leaves no marks, creates no nasty bumps to the top surface, does not remove any of the original plastic/nylon, and guess what fellers?...... its as good as when it left the factory!!
One weld repair, one wheel, £27.... JOB DONE.
