s2k7 Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 I am in the process of converting my swift wings to cycle. I bought a pair of Tiger stays. Can someone tell me if I need to cut the end of the old stay from the swift wing? http://img22.imageshack.us/i/xyzqi.jpg/ Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatman Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 I did, but it leaves a hole... Or buy some "proper" made for the purpose headlight mounts from the factory... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blat thanks---how far did you cut that tube? Parralel to the light mount, just below where my finger is pointing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatman Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 No, I chopped it as close to the flat bit of the headlight mount as possible, and the saw was vertical, so "top" to "bottom". Left a nice slanty hole... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stu999 Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 hand cut slick? That was my first thought, but it appears that someone has gone to the time / trouble of 'cutting in' wear indicators if it is... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
