Think I would use larger bolts than 10mm though!? :-\ Title: Re: more ebay bits, axle mounts Post by: XJ750(UK) on May 07, 2009, 08:07:57 PM They're made from 3mm plate I'm told, is this sturdy enough d'ya think?
Title: Re: more ebay bits, axle mounts Post by: trikerpete on May 08, 2009, 01:00:04 PM 3mm wouldnt be my first choice, but I have been told I over engineer things. my answer to that is.....its my arse on the saddle!!!
Title: Re: more ebay bits, axle mounts Post by: ROD on May 09, 2009, 04:37:51 PM Personally ,I think they could be thicker.
Title: Re: more ebay bits, axle mounts Post by: Manky Monkey on May 09, 2009, 05:11:58 PM Ours are more like 5 or 6mm.
Title: Re: more ebay bits, axle mounts Post by: XJ750(UK) on May 09, 2009, 06:12:41 PM I thought they looked a bit flimsy
Title: Re: more ebay bits, axle mounts Post by: ROD on May 09, 2009, 07:17:57 PM I think youd struggle to get a nice fat weld round the end of the tube you are trying to connect to it.
Title: Re: more ebay bits, axle mounts Post by: klogan45 on May 21, 2009, 11:24:53 AM I made some MMM type ones out of 5mm tube and welded 5mm flanges on them.
Over-engineered? Maybe, but better safe than sorry. Title: Re: more ebay bits, axle mounts Post by: ROD on May 21, 2009, 09:15:18 PM 6MM here!
