So I don't have the advantage of having installed it. What I would like to do is remove it. What I am wondering is if the original forestay is under all that?....and what might it take to get back to the basic wire stay. Thanks in advance.

I think the stock forestay usually needs to be shortened. DAVID O. RUDD Gallatin River Communications L.L.C. 625 S. Second St., Springfield IL 62704 (217) 744-2420 Fax (217) 744-2421
