Frame rubber bungs

[Conman]

Anybody else noticed the big rubber bung, just under the riders leg on the frame, working it's way out?

I've always thought both of mine were a bit proud but they have worn through my over-trousers on both sides and badly on the gearchange side. I covered the rip with packing tape (I know, cheapskate!) but they ripped that off too.

Out of frustration I gave both bungs a thump and low and behold they went right in  further than they've ever been  Hopefully they won't catch now and I'll get some new baggy over-trousers - (I won't, I'll make them last then use some ski pants that don't get enough use  )

I have exactly the same problem with mine. Pleased you raised this as I am off to the garage now to give them a wack!

  Like they say; if you have a problem you can guarantee that others have had, or will have it too  The good news is they seem to have stayed in and my ski pants are fantastic at keeping the cold and rain out

I originally came on hereto see if I could find out what size the front and rear wheel nuts were. I understand the rear wheel nut is 36mm but as yet I have no idea what size the front one is. Do you know?

I think you'll find a 30mm will fit
