Hello good people,
My son have had a minor accident at low speed on his Triban road bike. After the accident the low cost no-name hubs seized and wheels just froze. I have opened the hubs removed the ball bearings and the dust caps given it a good clean, regreased everything and put everything back on. Wheels are working fine now. However, the dust caps were very thin as if they are made out of cola cans!. During the removal they are deformed a little bit. I have checked decathlon web site but could not see anything like that. I have had a chat with my LBS guys they say they don't have it even with a new axle. Does anybody know where to find new dust caps for my next cleaning and greasing operation? Thank you.
