Dropping Weight off a Full Suspension

[IanB]

Do you reasise that the end caps fulfill a Safety roll?

Without end caps you greatly increase the risk of stabbing yourself on your bars! Serious injuries!

I'm not too concerned about NORBA rules. I bet it would take a lot of work to stab yourself with a handlebar mounted to a bike. Perhaps my Egg Beaters pose a safety risk, for that matter so do bike wheels and any other moving parts. Thanks for the warning..

Sorry to wander off topic again, but perhaps you should read this: http://www.polaris-apparel.co.uk/discus/messages/1/577.html
Fortunately there aren't any pictures, but the point of entry was very close to the femoral artery to the point of being nearly fatal...

@ Gripshift,


You must realise that by leaving the end plugs OFF, you not only pose a threat to your own safty but to others you may crash into.

Big mistake leaving end plugs off to save 2g to 4g IMO.

Crazy IMO.

Just my $0.02


P.S Apologies to ZACH for the thread hi-jack

With regards to the slr i'll just borrow some ones bike who has one and try it out. It won't be that bad I'm on a full suspension.

I had a Filte Gel Flow (with Ti rails) on my mtb and switch for a SLR two weeks ago. First, the look of the bike is much better with the SLR! And, for me, it's more comfortable.
