Yes they are a bolt up replacement, the only thing one must be aware of, it
the shift pattern with the floorboards will be the standard 1 down the rest
up, the shift pattern with the pegs will be 1 up the rest down.

 Hi Lou,

I think that the pieces would be transferrable. Let's ask the list! :-)

OK....all you Loopframer's out there. Can Eldo floorboards fit onto an Ambo
and can Ambo components fit onto an Eldo?

I think they can and what I will do is look in the parts books to see if the
parts numbers are the same. I will also list all the parts I have here.

What we could do is I could ship you the pieces (cause I don't have to pull
them off the bike) and you can see if they fit up ok. If they do then you
can send me the floorboards. Of course we would need to work out a $$ number
because I know that floorboards would be worth more than the pegs.

First things first.....let's see if the pegs are compatible.

Ian

p.s. could you send me a private e mail Lou. Every time I respond it seems
to go to the list and I am not sure that everyone wants to be involved in
this thread.

 Hi Leonard,

Will the boards for your Eldo fit on my Ambo?
I haven't the slightest idea. I have only had the bike together
for
 a week or so, and with dealing with a carb problem haven't had time to
study
 how they are mounted. I find that they place my feet in the wrong position,
and make the kick stand unreachable. I also don't have any experience with
an Ambo so really don't have anyway of checking.
The bike came with them installed, and it is a late 1974 disc brake
eldo 5 speed left shift.
