Rod Tingate?
« on: July 13, 2010, 01:29:03 PM »
Do any of you fella's know Rod?

He's a friend of mine ... lives just outside of Melborne I think... little town called Ringwood....

Anyway he's a wonderful metal smith and builds a very cool set of clip on's...

Contact details? Website? I live practically next door to Ringwood and will be looking for some clip-ons very soon. I also need a good welder to do some frame cutting for me.

Tingate bits are legendary. Dunno if he's still making things, but if you sniff around enough you're sure to find out. Maybe try some of the historic racing clubs in Vic? Good luck. ^^

Rod is still around. I have a set of Tingate clip-ons on my Rickman (Still have the Magura bars in storage) He is hard to find. The last (and first) time I saw him he was building a high performance BSA twin for historic racing. A ledgend in Aussie racing circles.
