can only get one indicator to frigging work! only the right one, have checked both sides with a multimeter and both are identical. but only the right will actually light up?! ive tried the indicators on both sides so it isnt a faulty unit!

Yeah seems alright for the price, not had a problem yet and people following me on rides don't complain about not seeing what way I'm indicating!

cut the plastics on the back now, couldnt find the hacksaw so used an angle grinder. undertray is painted, looks just the way I imagined! so all good, really need to wait for my rear light before putting it all back together though, plus need a spare pair of hands to hold the tray up so i can drill it

Pics pics pics

I am tempted to strip mine down this winter, only thing I'm thinking is it'll cost a fortune in replacing new bearings, or could just keep the old ones....

Bearings aren't expensive.. Getting frame coated isn't even bad, I only paid £80. All the wee bits add up though.

Are the 'wee bits' modifications or bits that are necessary to buy?
