Carbon headrest and toolbag   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #1198 of 2457 |
Help. I've got one of the Optima carbon headrests for a standard
Baron. Completely nonplussed as to how it is supposed to work,
because if I fit the carbon tongue down the inside of the seat as its
contour indicates then the headrest is pointing at about 70 degrees to
the horizontal i.e. almost straight up. Ian at Futurecycles is
similarly nonplussed.

Also, does anyone have a good suggestion for purchasing a very small
waterproof bag for multitool and inner plus where it can attach to the
frame?
