These are .25 aluminum, laser cut and weight 2.4 lbs. Just remove your hardware from your old one and put it on the new one. Contact me if you have any questions. Please visit Engman parts for details

QUOTE(goobu @ Jun 27 2004, 03:26 PM) Does this actually save any weight? or is just there for replacing rotting old boards? Wood is always lighter than a same size piece of aluminum. That being said these are slightly heavier than the wooden one. I make the lightest ones available anywhere at 2.4 lbs. The wood ones wieght in at about 1.6 lbs. Now to the second comment on these being just for replacing rotting ones. These eliminate the flex in the board when you apply the clutch and it hits the stop or the accelerator stop. (not so much with the accel.) I originally made one and replaced my wood board (which was in really good shape). I noticed a distinct stop of the clutch which was not there before I did this. The bottom line - a good wood board will work fine but will have some give. This can (depending on your clutch cable adjustment) strech or pull the clutch tube out of the tunnel over time. The aluminum boards do not do this. M |
