#2Cycle Control make them - they're called rearset adjusters

#3Yes, "Rearset Adjusters." ... Exactly what I meant - ahem...
They look spot-on.
It says they supply "everything you need" so I assume you either don't need any extra bits to connect up with the brake reservoir and gear selector, or that the parts are included?
Also - any UK distributors?
(I've had stuff from the US go missing before, or arrive witha VAT bill. )
...and finally - has anyone here fitted these, and are they good?

#4a lot of folks on here use the Cycle control bits, and i've not heard any negative press. There aren't any UK distributors however

#7Just to confirm, I too ordered a pair with all the bits to fit, and just like me they come quick enough easy to fit and a good price too, you cant go wrong

#11My first position I tried was on the closest holes one hole up from where std would have roughly been but I couldn't get the linkages on one side to fit in the position I wanted as by the time you got the connector and nuts on it wouldn't go short enough, I think it was the brake linkage.
I then went one hole back and another hole up.
In my own mind I always go diagonally as my thinking says that if I'm adding compression to my knee by going up one then I'm lengthening the leg again by going back one to counter the compression to some extent.
This has ended up being my preferred position, I did try one more hole up and back which would be the last hole you can use (highest and furthest) but I didn't like it, I never actually tried it on track but it was so uncomfortable on the road for my leg length at least that I knew I wouldn't be able to live with it.
So I'm basically one hole forward and down from the furthest, highest hole.
They work fine on the track, if I have my boot too far over on the peg then my toes touch but that's my issue not the adapters, I'm also using different pegs which I think are shorter than stock anyway.
I did still get the gear lever down a couple of times at Cadwell recently but that was on a high compression positive camber bend.
