we use them but they go onto a bit of durual (sp?) ally which is light but strong so i have drilled them so that i could move them back. but try them std to start with.
get rid of other heavy brackets like the one that holds your rear shock canister too all things like that add up mate

Cheers Al'

Yeah I was thinking about the Monster ones, I know frames differ from the SS ones.

And stop with my heavy Ohlins bracket, I love it

Phase One went out really early. .

as did David Checa on the 94 bike, and the bike Plater is sharing crashed out of the lead abot 40mins into the race, rejoining in 29th but some back to back sessions by Plater got them back up with the top ten.
Still a frw Brits out there in various teams
