to be fair they are designed to fail under too much stress, otherwise they can bend the frame/snag the tarmac etc.
Glad to hear Mr Toad is on the mend

The pucks on the old style R&G are prone to easy failure. They rip out of the cups too easily.
The new ones are an improvement, but those who should know what they're talking about say the JHS ones are the best. |
