[Closed] Cannondale Lefty Bumper ?

Hi STW, I have lost on a ride the little plastic lefty bumper for my Cannondale Jekyll.

I have trawled the net and have ordered some from dr cannondale in Germany, but I suspect that they don’t really have any, despite taking my order, as it’s been a week or so and it’s not been dispatched yet.

I’m reluctant to ride the Jekyll until I’ve got something to protect the frame from the lefty fork swinging round and smacking the beautiful carbon frame, which would make me very sad.

So STW does anyone know where I can get a lefty bumper from ? The part number is HD215.

Thanks

I made one out of sugru and it’s worked for years 👍

That’s a clever idea.

Will shamelessly copy that.

Thanks

Sacrifice an inner tube or split a section of handlebar grip, even a bit of pipe lagging to get you riding! So many options, no need to not ride the bike 🙂

Exactly, those kind of things can be home made to serve even better than original.
I've done some with carbon outer shell (mostly for decoration , until you smash it!)
