what is the exact size of the plastic we need to cut out for the disk? like the diameter?

[hoilandBrothers]

@Thekronginator 700c wheels generally have an inside diameter of about 24", as shown in the video that's 12" from the center on every side. Velocity Deep V rims or other deeper rims may have a smaller inside space. Just take a tape measure and see how far it is from rim to rim, crossing in the center.

where do you get the plastic?

[iRiideFixed]

where can i get corrugated plastic??

Instead of all those zip tyes...

Just stretch some pantyhose over the wheels, snip just a milimeter for a hole on both ends where the axle is.

White pantyhose look best but black are neat too.

That saves on weight and easy to install. The trick is to stretch them evenly around like a condom.

best easy fixie fix.
