Hi Friends,
today me and my wife did a travel in motorway , we was about at 130 km/h and right cicle wings support decided to crack. This was my wife face
Hopefully wing did not fly away
Support was made by miself, next time I will build it in inox steel, what do you think ?

This is a known weak spot.
Consider bolting the flat bar down past the tube instead of welding it. This is far stronger and more flexible than the normal method.
Do away with the stay all together, mine have lasted 8,000 miles without incident
You were lucky, not much harm done.
It"s always exciting to take a kitcar for a drive, you never knwow what can happen
It's all part of the game
Ciao,
JP
Ok, I will do like zilspeed say.
I do not understand how Mark did.
Yes JP, I also sayd my wife we were lucky, I sayd think if the bonnet fly away when we were at 170 km/h
I have had Tigers cycle wing stays on my race Avon for 3 years with no problems, had to adjust them with shims to fit some slightly bigger rubber, but still nice and solid
