After shaping the wing stays I drill 2 holes equidistant in from the outer edges of the tyres, cut and shaped 2 strips of 25x3mm for each stay ,
drilled for 1 stud in each which was welded in , bolted them in place and used Sikaflex to attach the wings. They have been in place for 4 years with
no problems even though the N/S stay has broken 3 times.

I use rivets, easy to remove if needs be then. will pop a bit of black paint on them when I get a minute.

B&Q do an evostik product called "seriously sticky stuff" Damn its good stuff, i know quite a few people that have used it and racked
up thousands of miles with just this adhesive and nothing else.
