Konker KSM200 Spokes

[benc]

Hey guys,

I recently bought a konker ksm200 for the cheap and the inner right spokes have all snapped.

I'm having a hell of a time find spokes for them or even a replacement wheel.

Are there any suggestions on where i could find either?
Are there any comparable wheels i could swap over?

I'm in canada so Qlink won't ship to me.

Thanks!

Does your bike have 36 spoke rims? Yes? There are rims and wheels on e-bay pretty much all of the time...ARH

You will need to measure one of the spokes you have. Front or rear wheel?Aliexpress has sets at a reasonable price.

Like I said, measure the existing spoke and match up with the ones in one of those links. If it's the rear it will probably be a 4mm dia. but measure to make sure. The link will show you how to measure the spoke.

Not only that but I thought Qlink was defunct. I always wondered why the website was still up. Other than generic spokes-by-length, I wonder if SSR may be able to help you out?

Konker oh another name for some Chinese bike!
Pics n details help more then brand names often as stuff is under so many brand names you’ll end up missing the item due to it being listed as the size or item and often never under a brand name

old thread: http://www.chinariders.net/showthread.php?t=14579 ALL taobao links are DEAD. Ask those Qingqi specialist in taobao, they may find it.

Konker KSM200. It's the exact same bike as the Qlink XF200 (Qingqi). In USA, they were marketed as Qlink, in Canada, marketed as Konker. The stupid part was neither distributors could sell parts across the border.

In N. America/Europe these bikes have been sold by a number of distributors and they are know as "XF" bikes. The Asian market models were produced by Qingqi and were known as "QM" bikes. In the past, I could only find parts on Taobao under searches for "QM125/200/250". Qingqi has stopped making the QM bikes for the Asian markets, but these bikes are still manufactured for N. America and Europe by a Qingqi affiliate, the Pioneer Shandong Motorcycle Company.

I have emailed them before with questions and they actually responded..

jamesj2008@aliyun.com

Here is their website....

Here is a set of spokes, not sure if it's front or rear. In the order notes, mention the specifics front/rear, disc/drum brake etc and a broker should track down the right parts.

SSR sells spokes for these bikes, however they never sold the drum brake version of this bike so they might not be able to help if that is what you have.

If u copy the item # to taobao, u will know it's for "Xingfu 250" (Jawa clone) & the seller's location NOT right either. Most Qingqi / Pioneer seller are from Shandong...

Why???? Licensing issues or bureaucratic bs?

Oh who knows. Probably dealership politics and contract limitations. We used to run into this in my last career regarding protected territories for dealers.

Your last career..... Let's hope that after 2 more days you'll be saying my LAST career period. Its a good feeling not being part of the career maze .... I've been retired a few years. I drive a school bus part time to keep me sane in the Hellinois winters....that's enough. I don't know a lot but I do know I've had a real job and career and no damn way do I want another one.....nope....ain't gonna happen.
