He's going to make riser bars by cutting and welding the two pars together.

i think brucy is some kind of iron man, who can't do anything unless he has welded it first. all the cups and saucers, the tables, linen, in fact - everything in his house is made of wrought iron.

You lot are all mad. Its OBVIOUS that Brucy plans to unbend the BMX bars and make them straight through sheer bruce (geddit) force? I think he's also showing an earlier effort. I'm sure I'm right.

lots of welding, cutting and shooting and thankfully nobody gets killed

the best thing about that lock idea is it looks fucked-up. and there is a good chance that will act as a deterrent/mystifier for any wouldbe thiefs.

I dont mean to piss on your chips but you can buy handbars like that and they are horrible.

Why not benefit from the existence of mass manufactured MTB parts, and get yourself a high quality aluminium handlbar for £5 ?

I like the lock though.
