Duppie Posted July 19, 2016 Share It looks terrible, will damage your seat post, etc. etc... and you should remove them immediately!! I will pm you my address to save you some space in your bin... Seriously, looks awesome! Would you consider selling them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RavenShield Posted July 19, 2016 Share Nice A pic of how the seatpost hold works please! very neat indeed. please post some close ups if you don't mind. Here you go...Just a simple pivoting bracket with protection on the inside not to scratch the bike, and for the moment a rivet as the closing pin holding it in place (this will soon be replaced with something more eye pleasing as soon as some free time presents itself!) Open.. http://i463.photobucket.com/albums/qq356/Ravenshield007/20160719_181033_zpswzyratic.jpg Closed.. http://i463.photobucket.com/albums/qq356/Ravenshield007/20160719_181050_zpsb1iniqnp.jpg BenReaper, deanbean, Skott5 and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will pm you my address to save you some space in your bin... Seriously, looks awesome! Would you consider selling them? He he nice one. Never thought about it man, to be honest the parts where the wheels go, no problem, they pretty much universal and should fit all bikes.As for the seatpost clamp, now that is another story, that part is custom to each bike.There is a slot cut into it at a angle for the seatpost, that angle differs depending on each frame geometry, then the length of the plank and the depth the slot needs to be cut in depends on how long your handlebar is as that is the part that determines the angle your bike stands against the wall. All in all it was alot of cutting and fitting to get it just right, so not that easy to make for a bike i don't have with me. Not to mention that part is a bit bulky if you would need to ship it.If you would be keen on the bottom parts im sure i can help you out. As for the top part i would suggest to attach something like a strap (see pic) mounted to the wall, you just loop around the seatpost and pull until your handlebar is almost against the wall. http://i.ebayimg.com/images/i/251334592737-0-1/s-l1000.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
