Also if it’s an adapter does it mess with shifting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop trying to be a wiseass all the time😅. it wasn't necessarily referring to the US. It just happened to be in the universal currency ($). If it read £800 instead we would know that included 20 odd % lol Whichever way you look at it…it costs 60% more here than the RRP of $1000/1000€/1000moneys ChrisF, Mtree and DieselnDust 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
