Penske remote reservoir mount clamp


Recommended Posts

Looking for a better looking way of clamping my remote reservoir from double adjustable Penske 8900 series shock. Hate how the 2 supplied hose clamps look. Reservoir attaches to Penske supplied "Z" shaped alloy extender. I added the rubber under the clamps. How would you improve this?

Not that it would make a lot of difference, but I’d get some black rubber and turn the clamps so you can’t see the screws. 
If you’re really concerned paint the clamps black.

I have the rubber mount like you are using, I have it on the foot peg mount.  You can tell by how dirty my bike is just how much I'm not bothered by the looks of the hose clamp.

You might consider "Snug-Fit Vibration-Damping Loop Clamps" from McMaster-Carr. They come in sizes up to over 4", and should be pretty easy to implement.
