Afternoon all

Does anybody know the weight of a rear beam without the drums? Has anybody ever posted one? Any idea on cost?

Been up to the post office and theyve told me the max they will deliver is 20KG.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks for such a quick reply. Might just squeeze in the 20kg limit then.

On the subject of rear beam weight, has enyone else ever noticed the slotted beams on the back of the sintra's? I reckon there is potential for copying that on the back of a nova for a bit of weight saving :)

Dont know if that would be a good idea? Although havnt lookd at one myself. Im dithing the entire rear beam and going for an independant set-up. Not sure how much weight i will save with it?
