CNC anodized aluminum front and rear axle sliders

These are definitely unique-- My only concern is the fact that the bolt that tightens the slider is on the outside of the slider. In the event that you did go down and the end gets ground down you may have a hell of a time getting the bolt out. Maybe not? Is there anyone who has tested these out? ;)
 
^^ as seen in the above photos, the sliders have a countersunk feature in the center. The hex screw and its centering collar washer are actually BELOW the outermost surface of the slider. I want to emphasize, the hardware is NOT what would make contact - the machine bevelled outermost surface of the slider itself would.

Thank you, Dingo, for posting the above "installed" photos - shipped to Costa Rica and received quickly with no problems :)[up]

hmmmm? man think a little.... if your slider is damaged on left side..you open the Right screw and take all out. or otherwise.. you will install a newone anyway..or I would. [smirk] nothing to concern!
 
Well said Dingo[up]. i hope i never have the chance to test mine out, they're too purty:D

How much for a set of bare metal that I could have powder coated? I would really like it in blue but the color just isn't quite close enough for me to the hero blue rims. My levers, pegs, and heel guards are already a little bit off I don't need to add a 4th shade of blue lol
 
Thank you for your interest. I haven't done any in black anodizing, but I can send you the silver ones and you can apply the finish of your choosing. Let me know if you are interested and we will get it going. Thanks again!
