Re: Nomad winter / everyday cover

I believe Rob is looking for a cabin cover as they are no longer offered by Ariel, rather than a storage cover.

Re: Quick Release steering hub

Sorry Charlie, I cannot remember what I paid but it was several years ago anyway; I passed all invoices/service history over to the next owner. It will be more expensive but you know it's been done right and is a straight swap. Give Ariel parts a call on Monday.
