Deflopilator?
« on: November 10, 2020, 02:52:07 PM »
can someone post a pic of how their deflopilator is mounted? i only have the bolt with the loop on the fork, not the one to the down tube. is it the same? is it an eyelet on a bolt? a bolt with a hole drilled? i'm rebuilding my bike and an trying to figure out all the things without re-engineering EVERYTHING

I had to search for that term I've never heard it before. I didnt think any Rad bike came with a steering stabilizer from the factory?

Its not really a steering stabilizer. Just keeps the handlebars straight while up on the kickstand

Hey, thanks Ryan. Interestingly my attachment on the forks looks like the one you have on your frame. I think maybe I'll try making a little bracket like you have on your forks, to mount on my frame

It helps from avoiding the "front shimmy" of death!  If you have an F150 you already know.
