    Only had these fitted for a couple of hundred miles, but the position doesn't suit me.
    I am going to put the standards back on.
    They are like new as you would expect. I have the original box.
    Anyone interested please send me a PM.
    I have the Leo Vince GP Pro fitted and this requires a custom bracket to fit to the VCRs. I will throw this in too if required (third photo shows bracket).

    Hi Steve,

    I'm after a solution to drop the height of my footrests due to the extraordinary length of my legs, would these be the fore mentioned solution?? How much do they adjust?

    Lee.

    Hi Lee. I dont believe they drop from the original height, but they do move back a considerable distance.
    Here is a link to the Gilles web site. You may find more info there - gilles.tooling - Products

    Steve thought you said you where warming to them lol, hope you get a good price :)

    I know its horses for courses when it comes to rearsets, but I recently got these and I think they are great, the quality is amazing, adjustment easy and a doddle to fit :) Go on treat yourself :)

    Cheers Jamie. I love the look and quality of them, but after another ride out they are just not quite right for me.
    Someone will get a bargain as they are pretty much new.
    I dont think they will be about for long.

    Looking on the net and from memory, yes they do fit the ABS model, however I would check with someone like calsport to make sure :)

    No PM received Drew.
    I don't know if they fit ABS.
    When looking on the Gilles web site, the ABS version looks the same but is a bit more expensive. I would check with them first.

    I've just received an email from Gilles and the rear sets for abs and non-abs models are different. Sorry to waste your time Steve.

    If anyone needs a custom bracket making, I'm yer man. I also make one off footrest brackets for bringing footrests forward and down. Not up to professional standard lookswise , but not pro prices either! Sorry to hijack Steve?:D

    good thing about these is that you can have them in race or road shift.just move the bottom shift rod to the opposite hole.
