• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

cycra hand guards?

I like the enduro eng better, but I did hit a tree last week end at about 15mph with cycra's and didn't bent or move at all.
 
I am looking to put Cycras on my SMS630. I have the rox risers. What is the best clamp to use? They offer a few. Thanks. Cam.
 
I love my Cycra Pro Bends too. As mentioned, they can be a beast to install, though. When moving them from Pro Taper Contours to Easton EXPs, I used big zip tys to pull them into the right position so I could insert and tighten the end bolts.
 
Does any one have these on a 2012 WR300?
I think I'll also have to drill out the bar ends but willing to do that, just wondering if there is an issue with having after market fork bleeders on and if you can still access the fork adjustment?

Thanks in advance!
 
Cycra's are very good, but if you aren't running in tight woods, you could get some ASV or Midwest Mountaineering clutch and brake levers.

The Moose racing/Enduro Engineering ones fit great on my 2012 WR300. Nothing against the Cycras, I have them on my 610 and they've been good, but I have the Mooses on a couple bikes and they take abuse pretty well.
 
Getting the ProBends for the 310, Cycra has about 10 different mounts for many applications. Going to try Moose Burleson bars though, already 29.5" to start with.......

Its not the guards its the bars- I would venture to guess the 250 has Tomaselli bars and the 449 has Magura bars (both are 1 1/8). The Tomasellis are good bars but untraditionally have a smaller ID inside. There are threads here about it and solutions like drilling them out or using a quikcert...

I have Cyrca CRM's and like them alot. Enduro Engineering make some nice ones as well.

I have other stuff from Enduro Engineering that I like, but I was looking at their handguards online at the link above. What is that black, wrinkly rubber looking thing on them underneath the logo?
 
Cycra Pro-bends on the TE449 and Enduro Engineering/Moose handguards/deflectors on the WR300. I mash the crap out of my handguards on the WR due to riding ECEA type trails but the Cycras are alot nicer on the eyes and had a little more wind protection for street riding as I have the bike "SUMO'd" at the moment. Cycras were a tight fit on the inner mounts of the TE but I got them on and they look/work great.

I have Probends on all my bikes, including the 2012 WR300. They are the only set i have not been able to bend or break. They have different inset pieces for different diameter bars, you shouldn't have to drill out anything. No issue with bleeders that i have found. I have to use a 90 degree screwdriver for clicker adjustment.
