Little feedback, had mine on for over a year now and a Satnav mounted to the crossbar. Completely clear vision, no blurring or vibration even with a tall after market screen. Worth every penny/cent. ::008::
Well, the windscreen worked it’s way down one setting again during my 46 mile commute to work. Again, the adjustment knobs seemed tight. After I arrived I again loosened the knobs, pushed the screen back up and retightened. This time I gave them a bit more of a twist, almost as tight as I could manage before my fingers hurt or I stripped the threads. Now it is staying put. So I’ve learned the trick is to just really crank down on the knobs compared to without the braces. Glad I got it working because I really like the rigidity they add!Propsoto said:My prototype didn't move from the full up position in two years. Last summer I installed the same laser cut braces that I've been selling. My windscreen hasn't moved.
FWIW before I installed any braces, I put a drop of blue Loctite on the threads of the large adjustment nuts because my windscreen kept falling down. The Loctite solved that problem. When I installed the latest braces, the adjustment nuts were still fairly "sticky". So I'd be careful not to overdo it with the Loctite.
Yes, I still have braces available. Talltourer, yours are going out today.Still selling these? Just want to make sure before I order a set
Thanks!
Saw your email, AWESOME, this will be a fine addition to the winglets and Vstream patio door i'll be installing next week when it's in.Yes, I still have braces available. Talltourer, yours are going out today.
Received mine yesterday. Nice piece of kit at a good price!PayPal sent. Looking forward to receiving the brackets.
PM also sent with my shipping address.
I had the same issue as Cymru. After I installed the brackets I noticed that the lugs didn't touch and the clamp brackets seem to be tiltedJust received my Super Braces from Tom, just a week from ordering to them arriving on my doorstep. Brilliant service!
Just one thing, like others, the locating lugs no longer reach, but the vertical adjustment seems to be secure enough. The one thing bugging me is the screen seems slightly loose, it rocks about 1/4” backwards and forwards which I don’t recall it doing before. Now I am sure that this is nothing to do with the Super Braces but I am thinking that I may have disturbed something because the movement comes from where the screen is fixed and not from the Super Braces, any comments or suggestions guys? I will take a closer look tomorrow.
