thompster Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 As subject.. Any pairs of the lowered race wing stays knocking about? And while I'm at it how about some carbon cycle wings? If not there's some keenly priced ones at kitcarsupplies but no idea what they're like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james584 Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 hi i have some wing stays but not sure how to tell which ones they are? do you perhaps know how to check? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thompster Posted July 25, 2015 Author Share Posted July 25, 2015 Hi James, short answer no idea, other than that they sit lower to go with cr500 tyres on 13 inch wheels. If you could measure the length of the main tubes from inside the right-angle bend to where they meet the round mountimg thing I'll compare it to what i have now though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikecocker Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 The race wing stays I've seen have the tube flattened at the change of direction to give more clearance to the tyre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mankee Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Strangely, my lowered wingstays don't have the flattened tubes. But they might be quite old and the flattened tubes may be a "new" thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
