Absolutely brilliant idea and execution - you should make contact with Phil-in-France, an extreme bodger!

Meanwhile this looks just the right answer for the Beta Alp that I've just bought for Mrs Spanish Biker. Then we can make off into the Pyrenees for some wild camping - if we can find a dog-sitter; walkies anyone!

You have made a brilliant job of that.

A question about attaching to the bike. You put on the nylock, then put the rod through a hole that had a bolt in it before and threaded a bolt onto the end of the rod? Is that right?

Just to report they're still holding up well, they've managed to be mistaken for steel on a few occasions. Good luck fellow farklers. And Throttled that's exactly it.

Hi Freelaodeur, how are the bars holding up? I just saw this as you linked to it from another post and looks just the thing I need to keep my throw-overs from scraping my suspension. Have they bent with time at all?

Fantastic idea by the way!
