Hi all
I am going to do a run of pre preg carbon fibre gear knobs in the shape of a caterham's in like a tear drop shape, it will be a bare moulding
with no insert so you can make your own to suit your gear lever thread or have some grub screws to secure it. You are best to use ally for the insert
and bond with Loctites Hysol C2.
If anyone's interested let us know to help us. with numbers.
If theres anything else in carbon fibre I might be able to do just drop us a line and I might be able to help.
Cheers.

Hi, Well not really just in the very early stages but with front uprights and discs new bearings balljoints inserts and modding a 4 pot caliper to fit
and only at the week end got a diff..... but would be great to see yours sometime. Thete is anothet guy in Bloxham too.
Cheers....
Hi all
I have taken some pics of said knob with a link to them as for some reason uploading them here does not work. I can do them for £25.00 as they
are pictured in the link or I can bond a M10 x 1.5 ally insert to suit a sierra type 9 gearbox gear lever or I can do any other popular sizes to suit
the purchasers needs for £40.00. I'll have some pics of the knob with insert and dimensions up in a few days.
Hope this helps.

Looks awesome, well priced, just think it will be too short for me

Hope this helps.
