Throttlemate Cruise Control

[Deleted account 200502001]

Bought one of these from their website a few days ago. £10 + £2.50 del.

Fitted it today and tested it out on a ride out (went to Skegvegas for a bag of chips), and it works a treat. Clips onto handlebar grip and easily adjusts with finger & thumb. Easing off on the throttle cancels it out. Easy peazy lemon squeezy

Useful for when you just want to maintain a constant speed. If wanting to ride at a particular speed, say 50mph then you have to make a few easy micro adjustments until you've got the speed right. But its extremely useful to activate just for giving your hand a rest. It receives The Bears approval

had similar one for ages but with the rubber or rings to keep it in place. O rings perished, so fitted with -bugger wheres that word- plastic tie thingy that never comes loose. Works okay. Still prefer a proper CC but as you say for a tenner, works a treat

I've got one as well, and I can't fault it.

Cheap (I like cheap ) but very effective, does exactly what it's supposed to

My plan if it ever gets a bit loose and floppy is to simply make a notch on the upper and lower edges and put a black rubber "O" ring on to maintain the tension, but I've taken it on and off the bike several times and it hasn't loosened at all yet

It's a simple solution, and I also like simple
