Sorry if I'm
BUT, I value a lot of your opinions and I want to do my bike justice. I bought a sweet motowheels lightweight basket from a person on this forum
and now I'm finally getting around to puttin' her in and I want advise on what clutch pack to purchase. Background: I run a cycle-cat open clutch cover and would like to cut down on the "clack clack" sound which I assume is the clutch plates beating against the "tangs" of the stock basket. (This sound has gotten much louder in the past few thousand miles drowning out the sound of my c/f arrows.) So I bought the new basket in hopes that the "tangs" and a new clutch pack would fit tighter giving me the music of the "marbles in a can" sound and the extra benefit of a lighter basket/clutch. Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated.

If it's an aluminum basket, then you want to only put a kit in that has aluminum frictions. The steel ones will make short work of your aluminum basket. I have an aluminum basket out of a 999 (thanks to Nero) and a Barnett clutch kit with aluminum frictions. Fairly quiet, but it still bangs around some.

So, what I am looking at is the Barnett Clutch pack #527-9MA ($139) Does this sound like the correct set up?

That is indeed the set-up and a great price too.

Form-fitting custom earplugs do the trick for me. And I humm loud .
