Bling
I don't know what to call these, but are they not the worst you've ever seen?
So I put these Valter Moto Type 1 on instead. I've never understood the facination with spending a lot of money on rearsets just because they look Bling But trust me these have improved the bike so much they are worth every penny. Changing gear is now so smooth and my back brake actually works (but not the brake light - if anyone can point me to the cheapest pressure banjo switch that will fit my original brake line please?) I can't wait for someone to post a 'I can't find neutral' or 'I can't change gear' thread. Because these are the answer |

Re: Bling
Nice can!
Prefer the look of the GBmoto ones myself as far as the rearsets are concerned. They come in black too.

Re: Bling
Not too sure about those rear sets, they look kinda high up, might be a little bit odd unless ure only a wee fella, and the can, wtf like lol, looks interesting alright .

Why would i want black ones? my bike has a silver frame Also I really don't like the look of them - too fussy, I like my minimalist look. I appreciate that the adjustability might be good in practise, but it doesn't make it look better just looks like what it is - one design fits all bikes instead of the custom made look of the Valter Moto. They also look flimsy IMO. Also the photo above on their lowest setting looks the same height (inline with the top of the swing arm) as mine so what's the point in being able to adjust them to be even more uncomfortable* *I'm quite happy with the height of mine. But my legs are totally bent & I do fear for my knees |
