Cheap paddle shift

Its cost me a total of about zero pence...........

Not the raciest or lightest or for that matter most pleasing to the eye paddle shift around,

But its cost me nowt but a bit of time and thought and its functional for holding my switches too.

It needs final welding, cutting to length and painting yet.

Are the upstands not the black mountain bike bar ends?

Is that because you consider it cutting edge?





Tell them about the bent treacle edges!
