    SSS skid plate

    Now this I like!!




    I'm tempted, If I'm correct it costs R1 078.57 , about £85
    Postage appears to be R326.22 , about £26

    Making a total of R1 404.79 , about £112.
    There's always the chance that you'll get stung for customs duty, but I think I'm going to have to go and start counting the pennies in my piggy bank!!

    Does anybody know anything about them?
    Is their quality any good?

    Looks nice and solid. They also do it in 4.5mm plate by request according to their site (standard 3mm).

    Most of my riding is done as a commute down country lanes, so therefore I'd be fine with it in 3mm.

    However!!! I do go down the occasional dirt track when I take the long way home after work and once I've got better off road abilities then I would like to do some more challenging stuff, so I think that I would definitely go with the 4.5mm. Even if I never go properly off road much, I'll feel happier with something a bit beefier in case of rocks, and there's a lot of them in north Wales!

    Thanks, hoping they had 650 as well but they are only 700.
