[Closed] Let's see your modified kit

Let's see the best and worse of your kit modifications, DIY parts, re-finished and customised stuff etc... Anything personalised just for the sake of looking different, matching your bike better, working better or just the result of a bored evening in the garage - why, how. A few bits I've done recently here : Jones-style cut-down cassette carrier to use 7 9spd sprockets on my Hope SS hub - done with a file and time, did the first one with a facing tool but still needed to use the file to finish it flat. I really like this mod for using gears on the SS hub, got 12-32T with only 2 of the higher gears missed out. [url[urlby [urlon Flickr Polished thumbie mount for an under-bar thumbshift - a quick easy one. Works really well with the H-bars. [url[urlby [urlon Flickr Superstar chainkeeper - re-shaped clamp area, stripped + polished and drilled out the cage. Couldn't get a Paul Comp version easily and this was cheap.
