Hmm i'm confused now then...
Whats the part number for your ones?
are they the group A ones on this page?

not sure what the number is on them, but they're the gravel version of the Group A ones on that page, with the gravel fronts too.

i've used the b8 fronts ,with (i believe) b6 rears. i bought my suspension from miles, who knows a thing or 2 about what works and what doesn't.

that's why i will be buying the same set up again for my china.

yes i have the 21mm vts bars, and so will the china. i will also be keeping the standard arb (until i can find a 30mm bar to try). i will also be fitting solid mounts
