rear hugger bracket

Post by spongy.bob »

Hi all,

I managed to get a rear hugger today, but it doesn't come with the bracket. Could someone post or email a picture of one of these? Or does anyone know where I could get one?

Cheers, Rob. :grin:

We'll make 1, ive got the welder sat here doing f'all - all you need is some 20mm wide x 2mm thick steel. You can just about see it on my bike so wont be that hard.

But what you will need is the tri-link spacer mount, that i dont have & cant make.

the hugger i bought came without a fitting kit also but got a fitting kit from gavin jap4 on here for the huggers he sells that did the job perfectly. it uses the existing chainguard mounts and comes with all the fixings reqd inc the bracket that attaches to the hugger and suspension linkage bolt on the swinging arm on the right .

is it worth posting in the parts for sale section to try and get 8 buyers?

I bought one of these after missing out on a carbon hugger. I sold it on because it looked and felt cheap. The edges are bare fibre glass and so is the underside of it. Would probably need recoating to make it look better.
