rear hugger - Gromit - 14-08-12
Whilst doing the brakes today i whipped off the hugger to clean up the chain guard only to find 5 holes drilled through the top of the swinging arm an inch or so apart. From past experience i know huggers can warp and rub so i assume someone decided to spread the tension to pull it square again. Am i right in being concern though that this has seriously weakened the swinging arm?

how big are the holes .......
Re: rear hugger - Gromit - 14-08-12
Well theyre m5 bolt holes. So id hazrd a guess at 5 mil

i take it they were drilled to mount/adjust the hugger by the previous owner......not ideal to drill the swing arm but fairly small holes so doubt if it has weakend the arm.......... :\
