I was actually close to just buying some cheap scrambler bars on eBay but was put off by having to shim up from 22.2

I think the price of the stooge bars is a bit ridiculous really. They do seem to try justify the price on the website by mentioning the cost of new tooling etc
£84 for 4130 bars just isn’t right.
I snagged mine for £60 second hand but in unused condition

Yes! These were on the list but I couldn’t find any without having to buy from the US. Much like the stooge bars, they are pricey for what they are. But I noticed that review also mentions they required new tooling to produce.
