RT LC Handlebar removal tool - UK?

Post by Old-Git »

HiI can't make my mind up if I even want handlebar risers (2015 RT LC) , so I've bought some from alibaba to see if I like them. If I do I'll probably buy wunderlich. Anyway the chinese ones are dirt cheap, but no removal tool, so I was wondering if anyone has one they would be prepared to loan to me? I'll meet all costs (obviously) and stump up a large deposit..ThanksNick

Looks like an appropriate length of tube with the correct ID and OD, plus a bolt will do the trick,

Wunderlich use the same method,

Ilium Works use a different more expensive method but you don't need to remove the switchgear and grips,

Found this thread, viewtopic.php?p=16808#p16808 a couple of guys just used some heat and knocked the bars out.

This guy doesn't recommend Wunderlich bar risers, nor disconnecting the electrics,
