Default Hey everyone see those RISER CAPS for a 2018 FATBOB on eBay
I see that someone is selling riser caps on eBay for $12.50. I think there's also a video of them on YouTube... anyone..?

See at 0:51 in the video the top right one springs back out after he installed it - I think he just didn't press it in hard enough, but hope it's not a quality thing if you buy them!!!

In the comments on YouTube he mentions he had to clip it back in because he didn't press hard enough. So no quality issue. Still $12.50 for 4 little plastic caps it better be good quality.

For $12.50 that's cheap I've spent more money stupider ways. Considering the part for this bike $$.. & if they look as good as they do.. I think money well spent... so I ordered a set..
