    We just got in our first batch of lowering links fit right on 1 in. or 1.5 in..slid forks up to match nice lower seat height for those that need it.

    Bill,
    According to Lon, the bike that you first installed the links on is mine! You guys have been awesome to deal with. I can't wait to get down there and pick up my new Strada.

    So with the 1" lowering link and the fork slid up an inch what do you end up with for seat height ? Do you have the links for sale on your web site ?

    I'm considering the 1" link and then sliding the fork about 1/2 inch. I would hope to lower the seat by 3/4" and increase the on road stability just a tad. A win/win?

    Any thoughts as to how much it would help in the wind? Specifically cross wind?

    It gets a bit blustery around here...
