    Got me Raider 12 back from Johns yesterday after its tour of duty at his place over the last few weeks. Decided to do a few jobs to it and the first thing was a front weight carrier made from some angle iron and an old mule drive so i can unclip it when not in use, i made it to take 2 weights but I think one will be enough. I'll let the photos speak for themselves.
