Nick,

Yes those are zodiac launching wheels. Your best bet for replacement is to either contact your local zodiac dealer - or make your own replacement.

Sounds like he just doesn't want to bother. Try;

Zodiac UK
c/o Avon Inflatables Limited
Dafen, Llanelli
Carmarthenshire, SA14 8NA
Contact: Mark Hart

mhart@zodiac.com


If you don't get anywhere with him, I'd try the international HQ in France;

Zodiac International
2, rue Maurice Mallet
92130 ISSY LES MOULINEAUX - FRANCE
Tel: +33.(0)1.41.23.23.23 – Fax: +33.(0)1.46.48.83.85

RNedialkov@zodiac.com


These contacts were pulled from here;

Yep you are right he was not very helpful!

But www.salterns.co.uk in Poole could not be more helpful & I have ordered a new pair from them & they are going stick them in the post £15.99 the pair!

Regards
