Hi All,
I've put about 40 miles on my bike now with the Staton-Nuvinci setup. I need some torsion bar advice.
I broke the staton instructions for mounting the torsion bars and instead mounted them with a bolt on the end wedged into a strong part of the frame.
This made me nervous and I needed to order new torsion bars to do it the way staton recommends.
But after 30 miles of abusive but careful riding they havent even budged. Should I worry about re-working the tortion bars? They seem rock solid. And the frame seems to be not even bothered by the NuVinci after a close inspection. I think I'm good. Thoughts?
Here is a pic.
