What happened with Brukus?
#11
Brukus has been down for a few months now. Tried to get to their website back in April and it was down. Was looking to get their "bullets" for detachable sissy bar and tour pack. Will check McMaster Carr but just in case, does anyone know of a company that sells bullet style locking mechanisms? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Also has anyone tried the HD locking cam and what is your opinion of it, worth it or not?
Thanks!
Thanks!

I started reading this post and had to laugh:
" You'd be be shocked how few people have the common sense or moxie to cross reference or substitute things as simple as hardware.
I deal with this daily and most these guys have engineering degrees and are clueless about the most basic mechanical stuff. "
How true that statement is (they are only getting worse), I deal with it every day.
I have never been to there site, what did there "boot guard" & " kickshoe" look like?
I made the boot guard for my old hardtail, never chromed it but the black paint held up fine and it worked great (made from scrap metal).
As for fasteners allot of companies skimp and buy the cheep crap.
I picked up a license plate lay down kit on last week and half the hardware was unusable, ended up going to Ace.

Oh, no, I wouldn't be shocked at all! On anything you're saying! There's a kit I bought from a very well respected forum sponsor recently, and when I got it, I realized that I normally keep everything in the kit in stock, and if I didn't, it was all available for about ten bucks max from local sources. Now, I don't have any issues with the company doing what they do...when you get their kit, you don't have to worry about procuring anything else, and ya know what? To many folks that's worth it!
