    Well done mate! What else can you do with a carton of beer fueling you up during an afternoon? ( all I would be able to do is drink the beer and collapse over the carton lol )

    Nice rig Capa. But, I gotta ask, where's the drink holder... gotta whack a stubbie holder on there.
    Wish I had enough room for something like that.

    For those with a DFGT, I found some cool paddles on the interweb. These basically stick on over the crappy gear change buttons, meaning it is heaps easier to grab another gear, particularly on tighter bends where you may lose contact with the buttons. Not cheap, but well worth it in my opinion.

    I went with the red carbon fibre look :)

    Cool, that's heaps better. I sold my DFGT, but if I still had it, would be getting that, for sure.

    Yes mate, they come with adhesive patches and an alcohol wipe to make sure you get the best adhesion.
    You only need to press really lightly on them to change gear so they shouldn't come off :)

    Like I said, not the cheapest thing around, but well worth it. I have relatively short fingers and the reach for the buttons to change gear was a bit far on some corners. Now it's piss easy, and I can change with my middle finger which is my preference.

    $40 isnt bad though.

    have ordered some, i get a sore middle finger in the big joint from changing gears., bruised knuckle from cricket a few years ago, then fell up the stairs one night and jarred it again, its never been the same since......this might help.
