    Fitted a WindVest screen today courtesy of Surly who ordered it but got the wrong brackets, he ordered 11/4" but got 1", anyway they fit my standard bars just fine.....Took it out for a blat around the block and they sure work well.....very strange sensation not having to hang on tight at $1.30 with a 20k head wind....

    They dont look too impossing either...
