Cycle wing stays
One of my stays has snapped on my tiger and the welding job was not successfull!
I here this is a common problem - is there an alternative to the rubbish tiger stay? I have seen some on Rally design however they dont seem to have
anywhere to fix the wing to looking at the picture but i am probably missing something!!

A very common problem! A search will bring out lots of threads on this.
My solution can be found on my web pages ( [WWW] button below) - Look for the menu link for front wing stays. However, my fix is a
'marmite' thing - you either love it of hate it!
It does work VERY well though - zero wing flap.

Oh well, if you want pictures too...
The one in the last post was the one that got me started - my approach was different, but fair dues to the original inventor!

Does the Tiger use Cortina uprights?
Buy them from Procomp. Not expensive and fit-and-forget. In fact, the LA Gold uses Sierra uprights so they probably do them to suit too.

These are the ones on it now so need something similar but without the stupid design - i believe they are the cortina type
