The fellas at SN Designs sent some sticky backed high density padding, we decided to put it on the sidehack bracket rather than the bike in case we decide to put the 'hack on another frame.
It's mad sticky though so you only really get one shot.
He shoots, he scores.
Buttoned up with the new, longer M10 bolt. Poifect
...and the back end. Dead simple as you can see, just line up your back wheel, check the chain and nut it up.
Next came the treadplate, We received some rivets to use for this but as we want to paint the sidehack later, along with the bike, we opted for self tappers so we could break it down without hassle.
It all got screwed down but there was a little noise from the treadplate, nothing serious but enough to eat away at you over the course of a track session so off it came and on went some little rubber 'O'rings between it and the frame. Sorted.
...and here it is in all its glory. Working brake, pumped up tyres, tightened, greased and raring to go.
We just want to take this opportunity to thank SN Designs for their service and bringing the final product to the marketplace. They were in touch with us all the way through their build and asked us to supply accurate sizes and dimensions to make sure the Rattlebone fit just right - and it did. Its a good, solid product - we know 'cos we dropped it onto its wheels from about 4 foot up, it just bounced and settled, nothing came loose, nothing rattled and nothing broke. Good job too, we were about to properly test it at the track. Thank Guys.
Impressed with the drop test! Might have to video this and place it on our website...
