GFR / CX rear hugger

Post by EVguru » Wed Apr 15, 2009 9:07 pm

Is the GFR rear hugger the same as the CX, or is it similar enough to fit?

Does anyone have a CX or GFR rear hugger?

It would save me having to make one.

oh my funny kind of german school english :)
Hugger is the mud guard? (this ugly black part which is bolted to the swing arm)
If yes.. they are both the same, because GFR and CX have both the same rear swing arm.
Sorry, i have none left ;)
But maybe i could offer aone to get something made from GFP, CFP....

Sorry, I used a slang term there without thinking about it.

I was of course talking about a rear mudguard.

When mounted to the swingarm, rather than the frame, a mudguard can be much closer and 'hug' the tyre, hence the term hugger.

I've got a good one on the first CX that I could take a mould off, but I'd rather not have to if I can avoid it.
