All i really want to know is if that makes me a well 'ard hero or Muffy a limp wristed poof??

mufynman wrote:Apparently with these you are supposed to set the clutch to disengage just off the bar . It doesnt mean you have to pull it right in to engage , but if you dont set it up like that you might get clutch slip with the lever fully out , and it means the reach is quite small , which is what the aim is , ie you arent having to stretch out to start pulling . Anyway , it was mrs Muff that insisted I buy it , cos she was sick of me complaining my fingers were aching every Valentines day
