I'm a total Moron!!!!
Decided to finally get round to cycle wing brackets today, a job I'd been putting off since I got the kit. So measured up this morning then
round to my mates to use his mahoosive vice to hold them, bent dead easy and nice and straight and was well chuffed...............until I came to fit
them and discovered I'd bent them 180 degrees in the wrong direction. What a bloody idiot I am!!!

Thought you were going to say you'd done what I did and make two right ones!!
Fairly easy to sort just a mess about. It'll only make you appreciate them all the more when they're finished

Do you really have 500,000 pairs of crap cycle wing brackets? You really
should've got it sussed after the first 250,000 pairs! I suppose it'll make eznfrank feel a little better about himself!!

just cut thru the tube untill you reach the bar on both sides remove flat bar, turn round and reweld. I removed the bar 1st when I did mine bent it
then welded it in place.
