To be honest, if anything, the kink in the bend would be the only thing I think that would be an issue if trying to actually sell them. Personally it doesn't bother me, I think they look absolutely fantastic, but some people may question the bend simply because they don't understand the physics (for lack of a better word) of bending tubes....without a VERY expensive machine.Quote:

Out of curiosity, how much do they weight, as a set? Just thinking in terms of postage costs if you were to flog them off on eBay or what ever.
Not sure what they weigh but they are heavy , was going to put a pair together & weigh them when all finished..Quote:

Banj, if priced correctly you should be able to sell them, and as you gain experience and the product "presents" better increase your prices!!:)
OK all done got the bolts in the brackets.
Got the last coat of paint on & dried..
Got the grip tape on & the bolts in the rails..
