Re: Wanted: S2 Xantia Strut Tops

Post by Edhertz »

The tops have arrived so I’ve got a job to do ….. lots of advice on the forum. As far as adaptors are concerned I can do you a S2 (M16, 10mm pipe) to S1 (M8, 3.5mm pipe) but not a S2 to S1. There is some excellent stuff on this site regarding converting S1 tops to S2 involving drills and taps. The seat angle as far as I can tell is 45° on the S2 hydractive. If you still require a pic of the S2 to S1 adaptor and dimensions let me now,
Cheers

I do still need but I’m guessing you’ve no doubt fitted them now knowing my luck.

I don’t always get notifications so only just seen this. I just assumed you would take some measurements and pictures.

See above. Thought I’d better tag you. At least it might notify you. 😁
