Hi all.
I'm having trouble finding a right side front wheel felt. Does anyone have one to sell or know where I may find one? Alternatively, has anyone found a seal that could be used as a replacement -or a nifty way of cutting felt?

Hi,
I used these viton/nitrile seals on mine, IMO felt is nice but mine is not a nut and bolt rivet spotting museum piece! :)

I'll try Cornucopia. I couldn't see any on the site, but maybe that's me being lazy and not asking...
Scott, that info is really handy. I'm building a bike to ride, so will definitely have a go with those seals. I keep it original where I can, but I can't help feeling squirmy when bearing grease and braking surfaces come together.
I confess I neglected to note which one fitted where but I’m sure there enough people with measurable parts on here to match them up.
Whose got a front drum to measure up for a start?
