Hey Peter,are you talking about a seat rail or the luggage rack?



I'm talking about the thin seat rail which is an after market addition which is affixed just to the rear of your seat.

Unbelievable they can still be purchased. Instant paraplegic should you get even the slightest bump in the rear.

I never tell anyone what they should or should not do because this is downright rude IMO, but on this issue I make an exception. DO NOT FIT THIS THIN METAL BAR DEVICE THAT SITS JUST BEHIND THE LOWER PORTION OF YOUR SPINE. If you have it get rid of it ASAP.

Yes, I know riding is risky but the risk people take with this "spine splicing" device is just insane.

I want to apologise if I seem to be ranting but my rant is unfortunately very justified and could save someone from a most terrible fate.

Cheers

Happy
