I think they were quite clear.

Bending and drilling are very clearly marked, and a comment is included about stainless steel. Nowhere do I see anything that says "bolt-on solution," so if anyone suggested it, it would have been you, and not Velo Orange. How much more explicit would you have liked them to be? I strongly suspect you didn't read the instructions, either before purchase or after, and if that's the case it's entirely your fault. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
