SamKidney Posted December 27, 2013 Report Share Posted December 27, 2013 Different bars would compliment this loads. When I rode it at Radfest they felt awful. But if thats what you like Looks good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Filo Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 Do yourself a huge favor. Get some bar end before you cut yourself up or take a core sample. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew_Gibson Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 quite tempted to get one of those levers! how did you get the splitter onto the hoses? getting the barbs in is a pain! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onzatpro09 Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 (edited) quite tempted to get one of those levers! how did you get the splitter onto the hoses? getting the barbs in is a pain! I had to shorten some hoses yesterday and I thought it was quite simple- just hold the hose with your middle, ring and pinky fingers, then hold the barbed fitting like a nail between your thumb and pointer finger. Then just give it a tap with a hammer, and sorted. Or maybe I've just got "dem skills" Edit: wow, I'm terrible at explaining things.
