Title: Home made clip on
Post by Halvor on 09/16/13 at 13:36:38

It is madness to spend money on clip on when you can do it yourself!

Get stainless steel tubes DN40 ISO-standard Ø42,4mm (2mm wall thickness) tubes fits very well for clamps on the fork. Get 2 pieces 1 inch OD, tubes 300 mm long. wall thickness 1,5mm is ok. Find 5 mm flat iron for the connection of the clamps.

Complete but not finished. I will do some more grinding and polishing. THey looks perfect. I angled the tubes a bit down to get better ergonomy. In the end I will take out the bolts and spacer sheeves and split the DN 40 tube. If you do not have friends in industry or a scrapyard with tubes from industry nearby. It is possible to buy short length tubes on Ebay.

Big improvement in handling and feeling. I got rid of the "backseat" custom feeling. It improved contact with front wheel around corners. :D
