cycle wing brackets?

After a embarassing and costly accident yesterday on way to stoneliegh where bracket broke and caused plenty damage, could someone please recomend good cortina uprights brackets for cycle wings?

Hi, I am after a cortina mounting set also. Doddy on a recent post in this section on cycle wing brackets has ordered a set from rally design and is going to report on their fitment shortly.

If good I shall purchase from RD also as those are slighter cheaper than other suppliers. Alternatively procomp do a set @ £65

See here...

Unfortunately, Rally Design didn't bring any of theirs to Stoneleigh. Was hoping to save on P&P.

going back some years now, but I brought the westfield ones, when mine broke on me, had no trouble with them, or try and find a picture of them and copy...

I'd quite like an update on the RD ones as well if anyone has fitted them. I think mine have been welded up once too often!

Yes it would have been ideal picking them up at RD's stand @ stoneleigh - fools!

I'm sure Doddy will let us know how his fit then we can all order some

Mine are the same as the RD ones, which are the GTS ones.

I added in the extra stay at the foreground of the pic to stop the wing bouncing as both stays broke within 100miles of fitting.

Since been fine for 6000+miles.

that will be your result from buying the rally design ones, not an easy fix either. RD refunded me no probs but also said no point getting another set as they will be the same.
no idea if they have fixed the problem yet.

i would advise getting the procomp ones especially if RD have not had their's fixed.

you have two choices on design
built like brick poo house= heavy
designed to flex but not break=light
