RT+ Cycle wing mounts

Does anyone have any pictures of how the cycle wings mount to the uprights?

Mine just don't seem to line up with a pair of holes.

are yours ones for cortina uprights or the raceleda uprights? think they have slightly different spacing. Might be worth a quick email to mark.

Looks to me like you have a Sierra upright bracket rather than a Cortina.
Bracket should look like this (see pic).

I did wonder if I had the sierra ones as they're a bitch to fit around the brake pipe on the raceleda calipers

New stays arrived during the week but I think I'm missing something!
The arch sits a little bit too high

Can another RT+ owner post up a pic of the wing stays so I can figure out what needs changing

You have to cut the brackets down to suit your wheels and tyres.
I found the best way was to fit the wheels, then tape a spacer to the tyre to rest the arch on, then measure how much you need to cut off the bracket.

You could get your head trapped in there, be careful

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Do you think they'd ruin the handling?
