Anyone know where I can get one from! Cant seem to find the manufacturer by googling and the shop I bought it from went out of business. Since it's been such a reliable bike having done nearly 300,000 ks with out having had to do anything to it, I dont want to just dump it. Any thoughts.

also needsrear and front wheel bearings and the steering yoke bearing and rear brake assembly is worn out.
Oh and the odd oil leak, but apart from that, its in excellent condtion. If I cant find the parts is it worth listing it. Anyone want it. BeingChinese its very very reliable. I would sell it cheap. Let me know if anyone's keen and I'll start a listing for it.

The crystal ball tells me that even if the parts were available they will cost more than the bike is worth.Do your bit for the Chinese economy and buy a whole new one and send whats left of the old one back for recycling.

No, you are wrong. The parts for it are very cheap. My local grocer told me his cousins uncle races one and he says the parts were very very cheap. Shame he's moved and I cant get hold of him anymore.

I do believe the choped meow chowmein and hung dong takeaways are the franchise holders and stockists and only seller of parts . You will find them under takeaway food in the yellow pages .

I assure you, this is most defnitely not a send up. It says on the tank, xingwang and on the frame it's got a little plate that says model is ichi wanga

These are very very relaible bikes. The Chinese now have strict quality controls in place and their vehicles they are selling over seas are of superior quality to anything else being made any where else on the planet.
I just got unlucky and struck a dodgy one. Still for the thrashing it has had it hasnt done too badly. It get's thrashed to death on a regular basis.

Now we're getting somewhere. If you'd given us ALL the information from the start we could have cleared this up sooner. Although the Xingwang is a good bike, some of the models didn't last long.Yours for example, the Ichi Wanga was not popular amongst male riders and made female riders nervous.Sales were not good.It was quickly superceded by the Hardong.Because of it's size it was greeted enthusiastically by female riders but alas the Xingwang company had trouble getting most male riders to embrace it.Best of luck sorting out your Ichi Wanga.
