Fishbone X-UFO Gyro fits on my bike??
Hi guys, 1st time posting here.
Anyway, did a bit of research on the net, and found nothing about this olddie. I want to install it onto a 2002 DiamondBack Skindog which already have a screwed up Gyro on it, so I'm going to take it off and install the X-UFO instead. I understand this rotor is quite old thats y i'm not quite too sure if it'll fit.
I've measured the upper cable stop hole and it is 25mm across, which is 1". I think the Skindog is a 1-1/8", will I be able to modify the uppercable stop, eg, grind the hole a bit bigger so that I can fit it? Are there any other parts I will need to modify?? Thanx

I wouldnt bother going through the trouble of modifying it to fit, you can call local bike shops or even browse online classifieds or ebay even until you find a sst oryg in fairly new condition for next to nothing...
