    I need the part numbers. I read a thread a while ago and it listed all the bits and the part numbers and prices, but for the life of me I can't remeber! Joys of getting old!

    Cheers
    Mike

    Ok, so it may not be a Renault item, but the ''softer'' motion comes from the fork itself.

    Re: Soft Pedal Conversion

    Yea my understanding is that the fork is longer therefore more leverage, less stress on the cable blah blah
