As all my old parts needed replacement I thought it worth a try.
If you want to do this you will have to file out (not much),or drill the bar and the mount to 12mm.
You can get UNF joints, but I think they are more expensive.
First test suggests initial roll is little changed but there seems to be less roll at higher cornering forces.
Hope its of use.
