Rick, I can't help on that company. I do want to let you know that you should make sure about lowering your bikethat far. I tried to lower my 07 UC; 2" and it bottomed out with 2 up riding. I was told 1 1/4 was all I could safely do. I did the 1 1/4 and will be sending my seat in to Mean City Cycles to have my seat lowered another 1 1/2 inches. I'm sure others can help more; but check it out first.

Thanks for your help, WellI talked to Ron he owns the machine shop and he did say that the most popular size the people like were 1-1/2 lower. But for me being short leggedI told himI wanted1-3/4 I guess I'll find out soon cuz I did buy them. The good thing about it is hesaid ifI don't like them orI wanted to get a different size allIhave to do is send them back and give him a call. He seemsto want to help you out and keep you satisfied. He also said that if I didn't like them at all he would refund your money back.
Rick
