here is some pic of mine  Hey I cant tell from the pic to well but did you wrap or powder coat your pipes? Can you share what that entailed? How much did you have to take apart to get at everything? Been considering it but living in an apartment, I dont have a lot of space to take a bike apart. It looks great by the way!  |

the CW tail is easy to angle up if the Euro plate is too long for clearance. it's lightweight aluminum and it's not a compound fold at that point.

oooo, crap. this is an old thread. i was sold too, but when i got it, and several others, we realized it's not so great. the R&G racing tail tidy is MUCH better. |

lots.
there is a complete thread about the tidy tail vs CW
basically the CW is thin sheet aluminum, the R&G is thick Al. much better build quality. the R&G edges are nice. the CW is so sharp you can cut yourself, and the one edge/corner is awfully close to the seat bottom. i was worried about it cutting it.
easier to install. 2 piece vs 3 pieces.
already powdercoated black unlike the cw which is bare metal.
do a search for the R & G or tidy tail on here and i think i put the US distributor link as well. i bought mine straight from england. i even think one of the sponsors carries it.
i had bought the CW thinking it was cool too, but i seriously didnt like it and sent it back.
take this as a personal opinion cause i know other really like the CW and the R&G is like 50 bucks more. but you won't be disappointed in the R&G
