LIN and RYOGA side section compatible?

Post by SWH » Thu May 22, 2014 12:27 am

Hi

The screw on side on the LIN has this protruding fancy cast control dial and the Ryoga has a more or less flat one. Do you think these are interchangeable? Would still get 75% looks of the LIN and the comfort of a Ryoga :P

My Ruoga 1016L swaps with no modification onto the Lin 10 25th anniversary. I cant speak to the other Lin versions but I assume they are compatible. The side plate on the lin is actually thicker - but it fits/aligns seemlessly

Thanks, I'm gonna order one for my LIN then :)

I noticed as well from my 2020 Ryoga that the sideplate 'encapsulation' is actually thinner, but it doesn't have to accommodate as thick an adjuster as on the LIN. Might reduce its width by 2 mm in the process :P
