More than three months ago, I ordered a set of SW Motech crashbars from Nippy Norman but they didn’t fit
After endless emails, complaints and attempts to fit a replacement cross piece – which suffered exactly the same fault, I gave up, returned the bars and got my money back.
All in all it has been a pretty sour experience and at no time did I get any explanation as to what the root of the problem was. Having some experience in the manufacture of jig assembled components, I am sure that it is a case of an inaccurate jig-set up at SW Motech but I never got to first base in discussing this with them. Suffice to say, I`ll be looking elsewhere for my bike bits in future.
