My 11 year old Tilite TR
Here's a few pics of my Tilite TR that I've had since 2001.

The only issues so far have been the worn through footrest and a loud popping/cracking sound lately.

I got a price a couple years ago for a replacement footrest at around $350.00. I just got a friend to insert a piece of stainless steel tubing inside the footrest and it has held up pretty well.

It looks to be in great shape except for the footrest and scratched up handrims.
I'm guessing/hoping the popping is from the spokes. Do they need adjusting/replacing? A bike shop could tell you quickly. Do you have another set of wheels to try?

The Tilite tech. seems to think that the popping may be the result of my changing from 5" casters to 4" caster which is causing my chair to bind up since my chair was built for the 5" casters. He said that once I put the 5" casters backl on it should stop but if not, then I may have a craked frame inside the camber tube mounting brackets. I really just need a new chair, at least that's what I'm telling myself.
