glad to see its all coming together for you dave.
hows the injuries ??

brock.
Cheers all. Grips probably just a little tight, doubt it's glued, I'll get a screwdriver some wd40 and a spanner (me) on it. Injuries ain't to bad still feelin pretty lucky to be able to walk and such-don't even need a crutch all the time for walking now, just helps with the pain. And it's a long way off coming together - still not picked up the forks and wheel! How's your predicament brock?

Dave- Cheers mate, do you reckon I will need to cut them down or do you think it'll improve handling? They're about 2.5 inches longer at each end and not as angled towards the rider (flater, going to have to stretch arms a little further)

Edit: saying that I've physically just picked up and held both sets and can imagine it's just down to preference. I can already tell these won't be as comfy as standards but'll be loads better than clip ons.
