Very nice too.
If I was you I'd cut the end off the k/s rubber and push it fully home or you'll be forever pushing it back on after three kicks.

Hi,

If you buy the open end rubber and drill and tap a 1/4" BSF hole about 1/2" deep and use a nice stainless screw and washer. Something like this.

That's  what I did to my bikes. Got fed up with the rubber shooting off.
