[QUOTE="timetraveller, post: 169918, member: 456"] Let us not mock the efforts of an artistically creative here. Let us wait to see what it looks and performs like. We might all want one later in the year. The only advice that I would offer is, if it is necessary to fit bushes into the cross tube, to make these of steel or stainless steel. The total amount of rotations these are going to be subject to is low while they will be exposed to road grit. Any soft bearing material is likely to get imbedded with the grit. A grease nipple on the cross tube to allow grit to be forced out every now and then might be a good idea. [/QUOTE]
