Android Dereham, Norfolk, 15 Oct 2010 22:06 The locating pins have not been sheared?
a_morti Portsmouth, 15 Oct 2010 22:08 Android:
Phill Pig Hill, 16 Oct 2010 05:50 Are they bar risers per chance?
a_morti Portsmouth, 16 Oct 2010 10:36 Phill:
Phill Pig Hill, 16 Oct 2010 12:22 How did they modify them? I can't see how they did it by just looking at that photo.
a_morti Portsmouth, 16 Oct 2010 13:36 It's a completely new bar clamp that fits together on the original fork clamp. Raises about 40mm but unlike turning the bars upside down, doesn't leave your wrists at a slightly awkward angle. Also should allow use of the locating pin rather than having to guess where the centre is! £120 from the maker on eBay UK, a set went on here recently for £60 and another on eBay UK for £60. I do love when sellers don't know what they have!
Chizzle d'Chizzledom The land of Ruttles, 16 Oct 2010 13:49 What did I do with (one of) mine? I bought it!
