    Minis are so cheap, due to the tyre size, that you might be able to buy another for spares. IME about 70% of 1960s Moultons have intact bellows. Clean them up and add rubber conditioner/UV protectant and they are like new.

    Thanks Roger, good tip. I didn’t know about rubber conditioner before, so I’ll see if I can find some.

    I have a similar problem, the bellows are almost intact, but have gone solid.. I think if i do manage to get them back on the fork tube, they will almost certainly break
    I can soften them with boiling water, but that doesn’t last long
    On a similar subject, I have a Midi.. anyone have experience of putting Mini front forks on it?
    Thanks in anticipation
