Rear Sets
By: Max Headroom Date: March 16, 2021, 7:14 am
---------------------------------------------------------
Hi All,
Just wondering if there's any interest in having some rear sets
made? I can model them and provide CAD files to a CNC machine
shop, they would be similar to Rizoma but stronger, taking into
account Tim's comment on side stand, and I'd spec better
bearings as mine are already badly worn in just 3K miles. I'm
suspecting to make this viable I'd need at least 10 sets, 20
would be better.
Cheers

For anyone interested, one of the guys from the Facebook forum
is going to team up with me and we're going to give it a go. It
will take a while but I'll post progress on here. Also we
considering a billet aluminium swing arm which should be cool,
I'd also look to make it belt drive compatible.

Sounds good, I've got one of the Flyhammer sprocket covers if
you want to have a look at copying it?

OK, here are a couple of images of the first piece, the left
side main bracket. I've designed it so it can replace the
current Rizoma piece, for those just needing a stronger bracket.
Please let me have any comments. It obviously can't be a direct
copy of the Rizoma or a Sato unit.

Mmm...Problem is, it's too incongruous a style if all you want
is a hanger. It will look too out of place IMO...
My two-cents... :)

Hey Tim, I’ll post shots of the 3D print in position so we can
see what it looks like and then if too incongruous I’ll adjust.
I put plenty of cut outs in as I thought the original looked
“blocky”
You can always buy the RHS bracket as well then they’ll match
😁
Note, I’ll also be modifying the gear lever pivot to be double
bearing so it won’t wear out, like the original Rizoma piece.

Hi all,
Below are images of the 3D prints of the Rearset LH mount and
the Sprocket Cover. I will be making some changes to the
sprocket cover; I intend to make the windows maybe 5mm smaller
and slightly reducing the height of the logo. On the rearset
mount, changes will be around stress points, maybe smaller
cutouts. Colour wise they'll be anodised black, with the logo
left aluminium on the cover.
Please let me have any comments. I'm modelling the rest of the
rearsets in the coming weeks and possibly production runs next
month. Prices TBA.
NOTE: Tim made a point about the strength of the Rizoma LH
bracket and having found both my fixing bolts bent I have to
agree that it does not support the side stand correctly. If
there is any interest, I will try and keep this bracket similar
to the Rizoma one so anyone who just wants to replace this piece
can do so. If no interest I'll depart more from the Rizoma
design.
Cheers
Max

Sprocket cover- count me in.
Sold my Over rearsets, my ancient frame prefers the factory foot
positions!
