Thanks for the quick manufacturing/delivery Mark. Now fitted my frame protectors and they look the b*llocks. Cheers!

Don't think they were fitted to earlier models or 1000's.
Not exactly sure though. :shrug:  Maybe someone else can confirm.

My Vee K6 (57 plate) didn't have them, but there seems to be no logic as to who has & who hasn't.  If anyones got a couple I'm looking to fit them to mine, I've cut some carbon look sheeting and stuck it on the frame where it was getting worn, not ideal but seems to work.

Managed to snag my trousers whilst dismounting and bent my RHS one  :GRR:
What a silly sausage  :shy:
Have had to remove it, bend it back and stick it on again, doesn't look quite as good anymore  :GRR:

Mr T posted this in March  'anyone know the torque setting for the M10 bolt that holds the left frame protector on?'

I am fitting the frame protector at moment and looking for torque too, anyone help please?
It's all good

Mate, I have heard you have bent one of my babies.

Send an email to me at mark@cymarc.co.uk with your address and I`ll send you a new one - don't want anything for it but if morality and guilt cripples you I do like the odd sip of red wine!
