Broken anti wrap bar

As the title suggests I recently snapped my sky manufactoring anti wrap bar in half. It snapped the outer tube of the twist and slid. Just wondering if anyones had similar issues or has suggestion how to make it stronger or improve the design??

Thanks

ok well i did a bit of measuring today. my current standard springs are 40mm shorter then the combined length of the mounts + the shackles. which makes me believe that if i measure the mount to mount + the 2 inch extended shackle and subtract 40mm i should come up with a pretty good package. next ...

i personally cant fault the silverstones yet they have awesome grip. The compound and design has been slightly modified and the tread itself is bigger and grippier then centepedes. I haven't let them down to see how they bag out yet. Much more aggressive then the centepedes aswell. My mate runs 33 ...

Thanks I'm pretty happy with it. I think the biggest issue is the wheel offset being so large it puts the tyres closer to the guards. But all good now. Now for ruf and shock hoops.

This making then a fair chunk larger then the 32.7 I was expecting. Diff is forward an inch spoa and body lift and approx 2" bump stops. They ...
