Cheap paddle shift
locoboy - 9/4/07 at 09:27 PM

Its cost me a total of about zero pence...........

Not the raciest or lightest or for that matter most pleasing to the eye paddle shift around,

But its cost me nowt but a bit of time and thought and its functional for holding my switches too.

It needs final welding, cutting to length and painting yet.

That's great.

Are the upstands not the black mountain bike bar ends?

Confused but excited. - 10/4/07 at 09:42 AM

Is that because you consider it cutting edge?

Yes the bar ends are the upright bits,

Didnt get a chance to do any car stuff today, 2 days holiday tagged onto the bank holiday and day one was spent doing 'garden' duties

.................maybe tomorrow................
