Cortina uprights?
Thinking of taking my std Cortina uprights out and swapping them for some lightweight aftermarket versions.
Which ones do we recommend?
Is it a straight forward swap?
How much weight will it save?

Hi Laptoprob,
If you are intrested I have some Westfield fabricated ones that are lighter than the Cortina items, I can weigh them on the weekend if you like. I
will be selling the Westfield ones as they never got used. Almost forgot I also have the cycle wing support brackets to match.

i know you like the safety of the roll cage but wouldnt the weight saving from changing the cage be massively more than any other parts????????
Thanks
