WTD: Carbon / plastic tube ID: 20mm
Hi folks,
I don't suppose anyone has a small length of carbon or plastic pipe ~30-50mm long with an internal diameter of 20mm and external diameter of ~22mm?
Happy to pay and cover postage
Thanks
Drew

Re: WTD: Carbon / plastic tube ID: 20mm
Overflow pipe from a wc or cold water storage tank should do it.
Get your hacksaw out

Edit - May not be 20mm internal

Carbon handlebars? I have some I am happy to cut up but they're in the garage. If they are the correct size you can have them.
Re: WTD: Carbon / plastic tube ID: 20mm
I have some plastic bit somewhere that my ergon grips came on that are that size (I think), and some ALU tube (I think 22.2 OD, and 1.6 wall thickness or something like that.). How strong does it need to be? Is the ID the governing requirement?
Steve's offer sounds better if they're the right size, I'd expect ID to be smaller than 20 on handlebars though...

Re: WTD: Carbon / plastic tube ID: 20mm
Thanks both,
Yes it's the internal diameter that's the key, I have a SPDT switch that I want to mount to be able to switch the feed from the revo to the usb charger or just off.
So overall the strength requirement is low, the plastic bit may be a winner Zippy, but don't worry too much if you can't locate it!
Steve, thanks for the offer to cut up the bars, somehow seems wasteful to get tg small piece I would need, many thanks though!
Thanks again chaps

Hi Drew.
Found the ergon packaging bit of plastic, it's 18.8mm ID measured this morning on a ropey set of verniers.
I have however found an old battery case for a 18650 Li-ion battery which did USB output. That's 20mm ID. Made of anodised ALU I think.
Let me know if you're interested and send me your address, I can pop it in the post tomorrow. Send me your email if you want a photo?

Thanks again bud,
Hopefully start to wire things up and take some pictures! In my head my design will be ace!... but what's in my head and reality are often two entirely different propersitions!
Thanks and I'll let you know when it arrives!

I have a piece of carbon tube ID 22 OD 24, length 280mm.
Not exactly right or maybe it is.
