    Same as mine mate but mine are black, Well made and loads of adjustment, the only thing i dont like about them is the fact that the pegs are not sprung as are normal pegs which means when/if you have to paddle to manouvre the bike then the pegs will catch you in the back of the calves which can be a bit sore when you dont expect it

    Just checking Steve, are you sure you don't fancy adopting cos I can make a strong case for having a mum like Karen.

    You lucky bugger. My wife would never buy anything for my bike. She doesn't like ME buying anything for the bike. In fact, she doesn't like me even having a bike. She probably doesn't like ME.

    I was wathing these as well steve you got a bargain well done, I want them but in black, let me know what you think and also how easy the brake light connection is and does the adapter just plug straight, cheapest I could find new is £370 so well done, thats why I still have not bought them yet :(

    P.S wish my wife would buy me stuff for the bike, you lucky git :)
